Version 0.37
 License:   GPL
 Updated:   February 1, 2006
 Source:   Source Available
(Actually dated October 2005 -- it slipped by me...)
From Adri's ChangeLog:
New features:
- XML/DocBook output now contains <footnote> tags
- Show page headers and footers (PostScript and PDF output only)
- Show text that was removed by the revisioning system

Also I found that for some reason (lost in the mists of time) I modified the BeOS version to be more aware of UTF-8. I think this was probably a misunderstanding, and I've now gone back to the source code as supplied. Zeta users: please check if this has fixed the problem with the PS xicon script...

You can still ensure UTF-8 output if you should need it, by specifying "-m UTF-8" in the command line. Similarly, remember that if you *don't* want it you can force ISO characters by "-m 8859-1" or whatever codepage is appropriate for your area.

When I actually tried the Ghostscript script this time, I found that things have changed since I wrote it, with the 'gs' command in the more logical '/boot/home/config/bin', so I've edited the script to match. You may need to edit further if you have a GS setup that is not the same.

Version 0.36
 License:   GPL
 Updated:   December 16, 2004
 Source:   Source Available
This release adds conversion to PDF and 'formatted text'.
Also supposedly responds to Locale, but I have no way of
checking this.

I find that BePDF doesn't display PNG images correctly (from, e.g.
a PDF conversion of 'testdoc.doc'). According to antiword's
author, this is a known bug in certain apps that use older
'PostScript' (?) code. The PDF file does display properly in
an Adobe reader.

Version 0.34.1
 License:   GPL
 Updated:   October 20, 2003
 Source:   Source Available
This release has a bug fix (from the program's author) for
the ANTIWORDHOME variable, that failed to locate the
'fontnames' file. It also corrects a glitch in the BeOS
Install script which would not work if there were spaces
in the install-folder's pathname [heh!].

Version 0.34
 License:   GPL
 Updated:   October 9, 2003
 Source:   Source Available
This is a port of the latest 0.34 source from the original author's site.

The main difference in this version seems to be the ability to
generate ("DocBook") XML as well as plain text or PostScript.
