I'm going to play with the richedit control to try get it to draw RTF documents with formatting.
I've started the richedit thing long ago, and now I have some working text wrapping code ready. So far it can use different fonts and attributes (with row height adapting to largest font in the row, words can consist of characters of different font), omit spaces beyond right margin, align paragraphs to left/right/center (no justify, but original richedit doesn't have that either), can display the caret in proper place (but only move left/right/home/end) and use different wrapping strategies depending on available width.
As the company I work for is interested in licensing it from me, I could double license it to be used both in Wine and the proprietary application (which wouldn't like the rocksucking API and horrible limitations of the original RichEdit).
Of course, that doesn't make sense when somebody has much more code, waiting for me to finish a basic implementation for others to hack on would be just wasting time.
