README for XcRichText distribution
a formatted text display widget in the Motif toolkit.
$Log: README,v $
# Revision 1.5 92/06/18 20:53:16 connolly
# 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
