Wow... I wish that I hadn't shredded all of my old Windows CD's & licences awhile back - I would have gladly sent you my original Visio (pre-Microsoft) CD w/updates, files, and license. > > You know that there is no documentation whatsoever for the binary > file-formats, so what we need is an application that is generating those > documents so that we can experiment with it. Fully agree. That is why I thought it better to wait until you folks (very nice work BTW) get the existing version/conversion settled first. > > So, the deal is: Get to me a pre-Microsoft Visio that generates version > 5 diagrams natively and I will do my best to add that file-format to > libvisio. Again, I wish that I still had my original CD & license. I do have working, legal, copies of the installed program in two virtual machines running WinXP, but I doubt that would be of much use? I'll see if I can find one elsewhere. > > For the time being, though, only MS Visio 2000 and later is supported. > > Cheers > > Fridrich > And thanks again to you, and Eilidh McAdam, for the great work!
