HI Folks,
Well a bit later than promised but here it is. Zeroth order table
support. AbiWord can load a table from an *.abw file. Try the attached
file after this rebuilding from the commit.

For a screen shot see:

http://www.ph.unimelb.edu.au/~msevior/abiword/abi_tables0.png

Many, many things don't work yet but at least we now have a proof of
principle that the layout code works :-)

The next big job will be to make a table break across multiple pages.

The table shown has a column spanning two rows and two rows spanning two
columns.

After tomorrow I'll be away from the internet for a while but I will have
my trusty laptop so I expect to make lots of progress on this.

Cheers!

Martin

PS If filter maintainers want to start attempting to load tables from
their favourite word processor, look at the *.abw file to see what is
expected.

You have to provide the span of the cells in the cell properties and
ternimate cells and tables with a PTX_EndCell and PTX_EndTable struxes.

See the abiword importer.
