Hmm.. So a disconnect of sorts.. Doh! I was thinking about porting some code over that I found for VisualSmalltalk that could write RTF files from scratch but the code seems to use these as a quasi-lookup table of sorts -- mapping statements to classes that handle/parse those statements.. I'm wondering at this point if it might not be easier to find an external RTF writer written in "C" (for instance) and build some bindings for GST to use it.. Is that route painful -- ? I guess another possible option (perhaps?) would be to generate some sort of input file that directs an offline (e.g. perl module) tool to write the RTF based on directions.. Not sure if such a beastie exists or not.. One last thought would be to have my code use pre-canned templates of sorts and just fill-in the details to flesh out the document -- that might be my easiest choice and certainly the fastest to get me to my end-point.. If you can think of any other suggestions or libraries that are license compatible with GST, drop me a note..
