Description Using LS2CAPI to manipulate RichText items


Cebulon ( don't ask for the meaning, there is no such ) is a set of Lotusscript Libraries to get values from and modify NotesRichText items on the Compund Document Record ( CD Record ) level.
This stuff is normally done using the c-Api toolkit. But there are also possibilities to accomplish the aim using LS2CAPI technique.

The first release is a copy of the sample database I used during my presentation on C-API for Beginners at EntwicklerCamp 2010

It basically contains 2 Classes and a set of lotusscript libraries.
All functions work on Windows and Linux. Tested with Notes 8.5.1 on XP, WIN7 and Linux Karmic ( 9.10)

You can get / set the $footer / $header items of a document. You can also get information about images embedded in a rich text item in a document.

I know that stuff like this is not as sexy as doing state-of-the-art xyz-pages applications on the client, iPhone ore even a coffee maker. And there are 3rd-party tools that can do a much better job than a few lines of LS code. But YOU can learn from the code. YOU can learn, how Notes RichText items work internally. And maybe some day YOU can contribute a feature to this project.
Much appreciated.


Projects can have short and readable URLs, e.g. http://mobilecontrols.openntf.org.

You can request a short URL to your project by sending a mail to support at openntf dot org. Put the word 'OpenNTF' somewhere in the subject.
Owners are the people with maximal rights. For example they can create releases and add more contributors.

In order to define multiple owners use "," (comma) as separator.

Enter a short description of the project here (up to 100 characters).

The short description shows up in the project UI and in some of the views.
In this field you should enter a more detailed description of your project.

You can use the rich text editor for rich text formating. You can also enter HTML to embed objects, e.g. to embed a YouTube video or a screenshot of the project.

Please note that the first time you use the new UI your description is converted from rich text to MIME. You might want to copy and paste the raw plain text from the old UI in the new UI so that you don't loose information.
