> This is the big news. We now have a Bonobo Control around GtkMathView
> for embedding the widget inside Bonobo applications. Special thanks to
> Pouria Masoudi for working on this in the last couple of months.
> Although the Control is not complete, it is already usable. I enjoy
> particularly using it together with mozilla-bonobo and seeing
> gtkmathview embedded in Mozilla, Galeon, or Epiphany displaying large
> MathML formulas that the native Gecko's rendering engine would take ages
> to render (actually, some formulas that take 3 or 4 seconds to render in
> GtkMathView make Mozilla crash after nearly 30 min of hard
> computation...). If you want to try this, beware that the CVS version of
> mozilla-bonobo is required.
>
> More info can be found on http://helm.cs.unibo.it/gtkmathview-bonobo/.

> We plan to add lots of new features in the future and to make the
> Control (and the underlying widget) more appealing. Of course feedback
> and volunteers are welcome. If you have nice use-cases, please let us
> know!

Woo Hoo!
Thanks Luca and Pouria :-)
I'll make sure this is supported in AbiWord-2.2
Cheers
