| Tried the old version recently. Looks promising!
/me still dreaming of being able to do "everything" on AOS.
Actually ... PDF and docx enables me to use this for work. Last edited by KimmoK on 06-Oct-2011 at 06:25 AM.

| It looks like it is for OS4.x only, why not state this in the announcement? |

So I can lure people to read this part of the homepage:
Quote:
AROS / MorphOS versions: Cinnamon Writer is intended for all amiga variants and a long goal of mine is to be able to provide AROS and MorphOS native versions. Cinnamon Writer is easy to port which only needs a few modifications and the freetype library to be ported. I am looking for coders that can help me port Cinnamon Writer. In effect only around of 300 lines of c++ needs to be ported. These lines primarily contain the code for window / mouse / keyboard control, so it should be a complete breeze for at experienced coder. Please contact: Projects@Desler.be |

| @Lionstorm
Could you please send me a crash report? and if possible, the errors that CW reports bugs@desler.be. All problems people have reported with this version have been because of dodgy truetype fonts (or most likely, a bug in how CW handles dodgy truetype fonts) or that they didn't have Fonts:_truetype directory containing at least the deja vu sans truetype font
Also: If you experience problems with saving / loading of DOCX files, please make sure that you use the version of ZIP that was supplied in the package. I know that the version is more than 10 years old, but I cannot get the version on OS4 depot to work (it forgets protection bits completely) |

Instead of depending on external commands programs to read/write .zip files (such solutions seem quite hackish to me) why not use a library like f.e. libzip instead (a much better solution IMO)?Last edited by salass00 on 06-Oct-2011 at 05:46 PM.

I still don't see the relevance for OS3.9 users. |

| @Minuous Tell you what. If you know how to setup a modern GCC compiler (or cross compiler) for AOS3.9 and help me with the porting of a few necessary functions for handling mouse, keyboard and window functions correct, Ill try to make a AOS3.9 native version. You probably have to run it from Amithlon or UAE to be able to fully utilize it though. Contact me if you're interested |
