*much faster* import library due to optimizations by
Brian.Ewins <brian.ewins@bt.com>, it zips along on complex
files now due to some caching of the main data structures and
some dudicious use of memcpy rather than agonizing element by element
copying, and a spiffy token table lookup thing that I don't understand
at all :-), that bit only affects the wvHtml converter though.
Some reworking of the pre word 97 graphics support. There is a completely
undocumented word 95 graphic format in use which I can parse sometimes if theres
a bmp embedded in the stream.
Im working on ver 0.5.43 at the moment, but the online site is using
it already (http://www.wvware.com) and you can see the improved graphic
support with it. Many graphics are coming through correctly, no vector ones
yet though. But its shaping up fine so far.
