Hi!
there's a couple of word files that I can't open, hanging up abi eating up all cpu it can.
some of them I opened with one of the 0.7.x releases, but I don't remember which. ever since, I have a constantly fresh cvs build.
I *only* use linux, and could not test/install abiword in any windows/mac based machine.
instead of sending the files, I give you the urls where you can find them:
http://venus.di-ia.uminho.pt/RC/Fichas/Ficha%201.doc
http://venus.di-ia.uminho.pt/RC/Fichas/Ficha%202.doc
http://venus.di-ia.uminho.pt/RC/Fichas/Ficha%203.doc
probably others in here are bad as well: http://www.ptnet.org/documentos/
for example:
http://www.ptnet.org/documentos/formularios/formulario.doc
http://www.ptnet.org/documentos/formularios/formulario.rtf
the error that abiword gives is:
some lines of:
wvWarning: There is no character run due to open but one should be, plugging the gap.
and some lines like
wvError: (picf.c:136) Old Graphic
so I guess it's the word importer.
hope this documents help tracking the bug,
yours, rms
