Is this backwards compatibility for old viewers viewing documents in the new format, or backwards compatibility for new viewers viewing old format documents? > When I have got such a "change request" I (and hopefully others too) > can review it and a decision can be made about this change. Well, I've posted a patch as part of a bugtracker feature request. The new-style links would obviously not work in old viewers. I guess I should explore what such documents would do in in the unpatched viewer. I fear that AnchorStop() called without an active anchor might screw things up. (I wonder, by the way, if for more robust handling of non-conforming input, DoAnchorEnd() shouldn't have a test for tContext->activeAnchor before it does anything?) Since the patch only adds an additional function, it shouldn't affect the viewability of old-format documents in the patched viewer.
