<b> Version 0.5 (31 January 2003): KOffice 1.3 </b> <br>
- portable rewrite using <a href="http://sourceforge.net/projects/libmswrite/">LibMSWrite</a> <br>
- tabstops are now the same size as Write's: 1/2 inch (36pts) <br>
- more accurate scaled image sizes <br>
- change to "At Least" linespacing <br>
<br>
<b> Version 0.3-2 (starting 4 May 2002): KOffice 1.2 Release (as well as all pre-releases > Beta2) </b> <br>
- page numbers starting from any number <br>
- optional hyphenation <br>
- paragraphs with multiple newlines <br>
- major bug fixes: pageBreak at start of line, fontTable terminated by 0 numDataBytes <br>
- character set conversion <br>
- ported to new filter storageFile API <br>
- dialog with Encoding and Import Options (disabled due to stability problems) <br>
<br>
<b> Version 0.3-1: KOffice 1.2 Beta1 </b> <br>
- fixed mswritelib.cc crash on files with an unusual font table <br>
- emulates image position from left margin by using paragraph indents <br>
- WMFs now render correctly in KWord (thanks to Lorthiois Thierry); note that only TQWMF code was changed <br>
- gcc 2.95.3 internal error workaround <br>
- more *.desktop fixes <br>
<br>
<b> Version 0.3 (7 Jan 2002): Put into CVS for porting to new filter architecture </b> <br>
- imports nearly everything: now has full character, paragraph, page formatting <br>
- experimental importing of images (Standard WMF + monochrome BMP) <br>
- significant performance enhancements (new MSWriteLib + less XML output) <br>
- emulates Write's unusual linespacing using OFFSETS tag <br>
- includes filtertest.wri to test filter <br>
- corrections to Makefile.am <br>
- corrections/changes to *.desktop files (thanks to Werner Trobin) <br>
<br>
<b> Version 0.2 (4 Dec 2001): First stable release </b> <br>
- reads documents reliably <br>
- can read text with full character formatting plus partial paragraph formatting <br>
- nice and modular as it uses the new MSWriteView library (MSWriteLib) <br>
<br>
<b> Version 0.1 (7 Oct 2001): Initial release </b> <br>
- the underlying code to read in the format is there but the filter can only do plain text with alignment
