Word 7 (aka Word95) document found

Word 7 isn't supported yet. We could quickly move some code around and have 
support for Word 6/7, but when the Parser changes again we have to fix two 
filter classes instead of one (as both parsers would share some common code, 
but not everything). This is why I at least would like to decide what to do 
with variables and tables first (design wise). Then we can be reasonably sure 
that the overall design will remain similar enough.

These features aren's supported yet.

David: It looks like wv2 already provides enough information to support 
columns (SEP[1]). Maybe you can add support for that while you are waiting 
for me to finish Headers/Footers. I think KWord doesn't have full-featured 
sections, but it should be possible to have different column layouts for 
different Word sections... not that this helps if the page orientation 
changes, though.

Ciao,
Werner

Hiker's guide, although it feels like it from my point of view :-)
