So let's assume there are several useful applications, all programmed with Python and built on top of QT. Then the central Python installation would probably be the most economical solution,...

If you leave out the shebang on Windows, it doesn't matter what it looks like for the other operating systems.

This promises several new possibilities, such as controlling the spell checker via language and country codes, e.g. `[lang:en-US]`. In the context of my yWriter file converters, such shortcodes have actually...

I see. In most cases, I translated shortcodes with replacement lists (*). The only pitfall when converting e.g. into ODT format were the cases where shortcode-tagged passages spanned several paragraphs...

Yes, when combining italics and bold, LibreOffice (and OpenOffice) create new character styles in the `office:automatic-styles` section. Combined with other formatting or language settings, this can result in quite a...

Sorry, I was just updating my former comment again, adding an example for overlapping shortcode. >I use the Python xml module to build the element tree, which requires some quirky...

Ah, I see. So you build the ODT DOM tree with elementtree? I use a template engine for the document header and footer, and the parts/chapters. This works for all...

Very nice, all these hex constants and bitmasks. When I was a student, it was said: "A real programmer writes Fortran code in any language". What is it today? ;-)

When I first looked at the novelWriter code, I said to myself: "Java programmer". This time, I'd rather guess "C". No offense, I for myself started my engineering career with...

Looking at the issues here, with all the feature requests, I can well believe that novelWriter will become your life's work. I've become so comfortable with Python that I don't...
