  1. It would be such a good thing to be able to do the same with document editors like Calliga Words… Do you think this software of you will be capable of collaboratively edit ODT documents?

    Regards.

    • No. What I wrote is strictly plain-text, and intentionally so in order to make it useful for the programming context (code review etc.). The underlying library I use could be used to do this for ODT files, but it's not implemented.

      Projects which do this for ODT do exist, by the way. I don't know how complete they are but from time to time demos are popping up.

    • Ah, I didn't know there were such projects. I'll search for more info.
      Thank you.
