Install.text says

0) If you want to use RichViewXML, RichViewHTML, KSDev' ThemeEngine or

Addict3 with actions,

  install them first.

  Open RichViewActions.inc, remove dot from the corresponding lines

  {.$DEFINE USERVXML}

  {.$DEFINE USERVHTML}

  {.$DEFINE USERVADDICT3}

  {.$DEFINE USERVKSDEVTE}

I assume in this case I would change the .inc file, uninstall RichView and

re-install it, making sure I write over the old BPL moved to

\windows\system32?

Otherwise it pastes the RTF and not the HTML?

Thanks! I'll just focus on (i) for the moment . . .
