Subject:  [VOICENWS] SW: Windows metafiles on the OS/2 platform

++ From the VOICE OS/2-eCS News Service   http://www.os2voice.org ++

From: Peter Koller <peterDESPAM at DESPAMmanglais.com>

For Developers Only:-
===============

WINMETA LIBRARY
===============
This library paints windows metafiles. It should cope with most metafiles, 
including WMF and EMF types. If you get a metafile that doesn't work, and 
it's not too big, please send it to manglais.com, where it can be checked.

This library will tend to go where the metafile commands lead it - usually 
off the screen. So it's best if you create an OS/2 metafile or a bitmap 
from the Windows Metafile, and then paint that where you actually want it 
to be!

This library is extracted from the Maul Publisher metafile handler, where 
it works fine, this extracted code has not been independantly tested. 
Please let me know if it works, or if it doesn't!

You can use this library in any OS/2 application or dll, commercial or 
otherwise.  It's a new work, and will sometimes behave  differently to 
libraries from other sources, often I have gone to the trouble to implement 
features not found in open source libraries.

Full instructions are included for developers. I'm sorry but end users will 
have to wait and see if developers will make use of this library, and/or 
let the appropriate developers know they want it.
