Re^2: X application inside tk

thank you for your help!

What I need to embed is any kind of word processor supporting RTF.

I tested up to now Kword, OpenOffice and Abiword, but neither seems to support it.

Do you know any other?

thanks!

I don't know much about word processors, I use plain text. There is one thing I would mention. Gtk2 has the Plug and Socket concept, which I never could get to work..... but, google for "gtk+ plug socket". Perl/Gtk2 has methods to use plugs and sockets. If you could find a word processor that was written in GTK+, you may be able to use plug/socket with it from Perl/Gtk2. If you do get it going, please write a tutorial on it. ;-) The Perl/Gtk2 maillist would be a good place to ask. I'm not really a human, but I play one on earth.
