Well, I kind of did mentioned about AbiWord plugins. It was in the bottom of email that you have stripped out, which I said, 'After collect the feedbacks and commit, I will try to take the look at create a new spereate port for AbiWord plugins.' Here's a full answer to your question. The truth is that I am not a AbiWord user, so I haven't taken a look at AbiWord plugins yet. I will poke it after I commit the big changes first and I will find out more if the build fail or whatever. > I have tried several times to build image loading plugins (.jpg > and .bmp specifically) but when I do this, the plugins will not load, > or else they crash the program. Is it what you mean by this feature, 'Insert -> Picture -> From file' in menu? If yes, then yes it does work fine with this new AbiWord changes. I am able to add *.jpg and *.png images in AbiWord. Althought, I didn't test with old AbiWord for insert images. If no, well what's name of this plugins? Care to point me the directory? :-) Later, if you still have this problem with Insert feature then you can report problem again to gnome@FreeBSD.org and we will take the look at this. > Any chance of enabling .jpg image loading by default in the port? If it's different from the Insert feature above, then no I will not get plugins load by default. It's up to the users if they want the plugins then install AbiWord-plugins (future new port) and load it. If it's Insert feature then yes, it is enable by default with this big change. ;-) Cheers, Mezz > Thanks for your time. -- mezz7@cox.net - mezz@FreeBSD.org FreeBSD GNOME Team http://www.FreeBSD.org/gnome/ - gnome@FreeBSD.org
