- # RTF conformance fixes

-
-
- The XcRichText fills the need for a formatted text display widget in the
- Motif toolkit. It interprets RTF data and formats and displays it using
- X fonts, colors, lines, and pixmaps.
-
- REQUIREMENTS
-
- In order to build applications using the XcRichText widget, you will
- need:
-
- * an ANSI C compiler
- * a C++ compiler that implements version 2.1 of the language
- * the OSF/Motif toolkit
-
- INSTALLATION
-
- This distribution uses the Imake system for portable software. Sites
- with X11 and imake installed can simply uncompress and untar the
- distribution, make the makefiles, and make the distribution:
-
- % xmkmf
- % make Makefiles
- % make depend
- % make
- % cd test
- % make test # this should display some rich text in the widget
-
- Some sites may need to edit the Xc.tmpl to specify an ANSI compiler
- and a C++ compiler.
-
- This release has been built and tested on:
-
- arch os
- sun4 SunOS Release 4.1.1
- c2mp ConvexOS Release 10.0
- HPsnake HP OSF/1 TR
-
- with Motif 1.1
-
- TODO
-
- * support \mac,\pc charsets
- * support tables fully
- * find a way to support font sizes without XLoadQueryFont'ing 100 times
- * support Mac bitmap formats
- * support NeXT bitmap formats?
- * clean up the man page
