Re: [Ann] going overboard with features



I am tyring to remember a quote by jmz i think that goes something like
this
"every program expands until it can read email or is replaced by another
program that can"

I have resisted filing a bug requesting some sort of "Send To" option, i
am hoping someone will come up with a generalised reusable component for
all of Gnome/GTK or Gnome-Office at least (hmm, there must be a gnome
wishlist around here somewhere ...?)

I have thought about a spellchecking plugin, i suspect something useful
could be done with gktspell or similar and we could probably yoink code
from either Abiword or Gedit for the GUI.

Subject: [Ann] going overboard with features


the file I enclose here should be loadable, and feature a couple of
interesting effects....

      -- Cyrille, who is afraid he is reimplementing The Incredible Machine in dia

just make sure to reimplement it as a library or some sort of a seperable
a component so that the next guy can use it and have an option to compile
a build without it and you are sorted :)

Later
