1. HTML to RTF
Hi Tom or Others,
As you all know i've been working on an email client that i will soon
sell off to my school but will always be free
to EU programmers. So far most of it is workin'. There is one other
major core component i would like to solve,
that is HTML mail support. All i need at the moment is a tool for
converting HTML to RTF or RTF to HTML. I
did an Archive search and failed. All this time i have been using Thomas
Parslow IM Marvin.exw i had never
noticed it had an include for doing this. I was like great thats all i
need. Doing a closer look, the code was
intergrated with the main program, so it couldn't be used as a separate
include file by other programmers.
Is there any one out there who has written such a library? Cause i think
this library is essential to EU Internet
programmers especially those who love formatted text!!
Qn: To TOM: i was just wondering your program is hosted at
sourceforge.net, Is there any big advantage of
placing it there over placing it on the RDS site?

Actually you should be able to remove it from the rest of the program
and use it elsewhere, it requires eebax (my xml parser) and xmltree (a
library for loading an xml file into a structure using eebax).
However, it's probably not suitable for what you need, it requires
XHTML which is much stricter than normal HTML. Plus it only supports a
subset. You could still use the xhtmlrtf_RTF2XHTML function as an
XHTML document is a perfectly valid HTML document.

It would probably be possible to use an IE object like Outlook does (you'd
probably need to use Matthew Lewis's COM library) although I'd really
advise against this as it is the source of all Outlooks (many)
security vulnerabilities.

Sourceforge provides loads of resources for open source projects such
as web hosting, mailing lists, discussion forums and CVS (a system for
tracking changes in source code and allowing many people to work
concurrently on the same project). RDS just host Euphoria related
files on the archive page...
