Well, I actually want to write a small somewhat automatized spell checker for Latex files, so that I can extract all the words from a Latex source file, compare them with a word list and mark those that don't occur in bold black, followed by a suggestion on how to replace them in bold red (choose a word from a list which is nearest wrt. the Levenstein distance.) That should make it easier to correct things. As a matter of fact, the problem I am encountering seems to be a Jarte problem, not a Ruby or RTF problem - once I passed the backslashes-text enclosed in ' ' rather than " " that is. I opened the file under Microsoft windows and I get the desired result - well nearly that is, because the latex backslash text "\kappa_{1}" etc . doesn't appear correctly yet. But that can be fixed I think. So the world is all nice for me again, Best regards, Axel -------------------------------1118398810--
