Sorry guys, 

I have put a considerable amount of time into kword, but it's just to hard.

I work as a systems designer in Java. I wanted to look at koffice and C++
for fun.

But when I want to add a little thing everything falls over me, the design of
kword is just far from nice OO programming. 
A simple OO rule; creation of child objects is done in one place, this ensures 
that data consistency is always maintained. Just look at the amount of:
  new KWFrame calls
a KWFrame* KWFrameSet::createNewFrame() would have been much nicer.

The fact that a frame does not know what type it is....

The only thing worse than failure is the fear of trying something new
