If the doc is a bunch of HTML files then you can view them with a
browser, either by serving them via a web server or by using a file
URL. For example, if the files are under /path/to/files then you
could view the doc with file:///path/to/files/index.html.

psql is the standard client but third-party clients exist. Some
people, for example, like pgAdmin III.
