something like changing the configure string to including wv linking in
zlib support?
ie: ./configure --with-zlib=(zlib path here)
the error message that came out when I tried to import a doc with a
word2k equation in it was that it couldn't access the wmf output of the
formula w/o zlib in wv for compressed wmf support.
seems like the with-zlib support added into
[abitree]/src/config/require/unix/Makefile - around line 121 or so might
make that work - If I get a chance I'll test that before long.
if that works then I'd hope it would be the default -b/c displaying
those things would be a MAJOR benefit.
heck displaying ALL compressed wmf objects would be nice.

Do you know where I would look for more info on that?
thanks
