Ha! And I foil your Mac foiling attempts with my own cross platform
QStripper tool! ;-)
1. Go to http://qt.nokia.com/downloads and download QT for Max OS-X 10.6
(or later) 64 bit.
2. Install.
3. Go to http://sourceforge.net/projects/qstripper/files/qstripper/ and
get the (latest) source code for QStripper.
4. Unpack.
5. Open the "QT Creator" IDE and load the qstripper.pro file, compile.
Now you have a completely MAC version of QStripper which allows you to
load (multiple) Quill files and can export them in many formats:
* PDF (Text based, not bitmap)
* DocBook XML
* Text
* HTML
The DocBook XML output can be further processed, with a couple of
additional tools, into:
* HTML (one file)
* HTML (sectioned)
* PDF (Better than default PDF above)
* ePub
* RTF
* WordML
* Etc.
Brief details in qstripper.html.
I know it compiles on Windows and Linux, I'd be interested to know if it
compiles on MAC as well, unchanged.
Once you have QStripper working, why not try my cross platform QXL.WIN
explorer program QxlWin? At present there's not an official download,
but you can get a tarball from
http://qxlwin.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/qxlwin/?view=tar or,
alternatively, Subversion (Version Control) checkout is possible by
running "svn co https://qxlwin.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/qxlwin qxlwin".
Open qxlwin.pro in QT Creator, copile, run. Open a qxl.win style "hard
disc" and explore ....
Again, works fine on Windows and Linux, be interesting to know if it
works on MACs too.
Cheers,
Norm.
