From koffice-devel Sun Feb 04 15:55:18 2001 From: Nicolas GOUTTE Date: Sun, 04 Feb 2001 15:55:18 +0000 To: koffice-devel Subject: New maintainer for HTML filter (RE: RE: Fwd: Bug#19405: KHTML Kpart for Kword) X-MARC-Message: https://marc.info/?l=koffice-devel&m=98130239705855 I have decided to take the maintainership of KWord's HTML filter. A first new version is already in the CVS. At first, I will work on the export filter, as it was supposed to work. I have already removed the old code completely (Remember: it is still in the CVS, if someone really needs it!). As for the import filter, it has never imported HTML files, so I think it is not a priority to "fix" it. It will give me more time to understand how KHtml works. However, I am well aware that many people would like a working HTML import filter. -----Original Message----- From: David Faure [SMTP:david@mandrakesoft.com] Sent: Saturday, February 03, 2001 6:30 PM To: koffice-devel@max.tat.physik.uni-tuebingen.de Subject: Re: RE: Fwd: Bug#19405: KHTML Kpart for Kword On Fri, Feb 02, 2001 at 01:32:50PM +0100, Nicolas GOUTTE wrote: > - Should I take the maintainership of the HTML filter? It would mean a complete re-write. Feel free. There is no maintainer (I only bugfixed it in Trysil, and apparently someone (or me) broke it later).

Don't bother with that code, IMHO. > I have no ideas yet how to do a HTML import filter but KHtml shows how it can be done. > If I can use KHtml directly is another story, as KHtml is made for viewing an HTML page, > not just for decoding it! Right - but the parser is what you might want to reuse. > And yes, I have already written HTML pages by hand, so I know the file format! ;-) -- David FAURE david@mandrakesoft.com, faure@kde.org http://home.clara.net/faure/, http://www.konqueror.org/ KDE, Making The Future of Computing Available Today _______________________________________________ Koffice-devel mailing list Koffice-devel@master.kde.org http://master.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/koffice-devel _______________________________________________ Koffice-devel mailing list Koffice-devel@master.kde.org http://master.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/koffice-devel
