Tom, even with a poll, we'd still be left with the dual issues of
specification and implementation. What I'm after is to emulate in
Revolution what I've already done in Windows with WikiWriter
(http://hytext.com/ww), only with slicker cross-platform features.
The idea is fairly simple markup in a text scripting mode, with full
HTML-like display in viewer mode. The purpose is to provide an
easy-to-use collaborative hypertext document production environment. I'm
beginning to see that I will have to create an extensive library of
display kludges (spacer graphics, sliced text controls) just to
duplicate what is already available in any browser. Since Rev 2.7 for
Linux (my development platform) is still in the oven and I can't make
hay without sunshine, I'm leaning toward the easy way out -- wait for
Altuit's altBrowser solution to evolve to cover my problem.

Jerry,
I don't have a copy of Media so take this with a grain of salt, but I
don't think that RRs idea of a word processor is the same as ours. I
do not believe that anything in the capabilities present in 2.7 are
different in Media and so that would mean there are no new abilities
for these types of word processing features.
I too would absolutely love to see the items you mention added to RR.
Maybe we an start a thread on the Forums and maybe get a Poll started
to see how many others are also interested.

Does anyone who got Media can tell us if the list of features of a
word processor include things like paragraph-level formatting and
full justification?
And numbered and unnumbered lists, graphics insertion with text
flow-around, assignable text and paragraph styles.... ?
