So I've managed thus far to get a working subset of the abiword source (with a
few files modified and a few more completely butchered, like xap_App and
xap_Frame).
After some initial joy at converting doc->rtf and seeing good output, I am
already seeing some minor issues that I'm not sure are my fault or if they are
just not done yet.
The RTF that abiword produces for bullet lists displays bullet lists in
abiword, but opening them in Microsoft word shows just a normal list.
Similarly, the wingdings.doc conversion produces a completely blank page. I
see that abiword does the same, but I wonder if there is any progress on this?
If anyone would like a tar of the working source tree (it is still pretty ugly
and hacked. I have seperate copies of several directories in the tree and I
depend on assuming the all the various support libraries were already built
during a build of the main program) then please email me. Once it is a bit
more cleaned up (hopefully just a patch file to the main tree) I'll mail the
list with a URL to the source. My Makefile has hardwired Mac specific
directories (like abi/src/MACOSX_6.3_ppc_OBJ/obj/libAbi_libiconv.a) but my
source should build on any platform since any platform specific stuff I stubbed
out.
