KOffice Filter Wrapper
======================
This is a generic framework for developing KOffice import and export
filters in a scripting language of your choice (Python, Perl, etc).
Requirements for your filter:
-----------------------------
- do whatever you want with your script, it just has to take two
parameters, the input file and the output file
- provide a .desktop files, containing these mandatory fields:
Name=My cool filter in Perl
Type=Service
ServiceTypes=KOfficeGenericFilter
Exec=my_filter.pl
X-TDE-Wrapper-Export=<MIME type of the exported file>
X-TDE-Wrapper-Import=<MIME type of the imported file>
- write a suitable Makefile.am
bin_SCRIPTS = my_filter.pl
service_DATA = my_filter.desktop
servicedir = $(kde_servicesdir)
- if not already present, write a .desktop file for the external MIME
type
In doubt, have a look at an example filter in
filters/kpresenter/magicpoint.
The only shortcoming at the moment is that you have to add these MIME
types to filters/generic_wrapper/generic_filter.desktop file (in the
fields X-TDE-Export resp. X-TDE-Import).

That's it, have fun :-)
