Here it is, version 0.2!

Aside from everything being in one macro (unless you really wanted chapter page-breaks), the only thing that's really new is that the macro outputs a RTF file and a PDF file onto the desktop. Everything being in one macro is pretty big, though!

I'm indebted to John Vigor, who gave me a great bit of code that made everything possible - everyone give him props if he ever comes over here from the OOo forum! Thanks to him, we've now got a single macro that needs to be run to convert .txt files into something readable and bookmark-able. There are still quite a few things that would make this even better - but I think I'll take a day off first

If anybody wants to run this and leave some feedback (or instructions on how to put page breaks into an OOo macro!), I'd love to hear from ya. The documentation is much more fluid now, mostly just explaining what everything does and including a few pictures to help those who don't often use OpenOffice.org.

Thanks, everyone - now I can finally go to bed!

Sam
