LibreOfficeKit
**************
LibreOfficeKit can be used for accessing LibreOffice functionality
through C/C++, without any need to use UNO.
For now it only offers document conversion (in addition to an experimental
tiled rendering API).
Integrating LOK into other software
-----------------------------------
LOK functionality can be accessed by including LibreOfficeKit.h[xx] in your
program.
LOK initialisation (lok_init) requires the inclusion of LibreOfficeKitInit.h
in your program. Should you be using the C++ LibreOfficeKit.hxx header you
must first include LibreOfficeKitInit.h followed by LibreOfficeKit.hxx in any
files where you need to use lok_cpp_init.
(LibreOfficeKit.hxx is a simple and fully inlined C++ wrapper for the same
functionality as in LibreOfficeKit.h.)
An example program (currently using the older shim.c/static library
integration) can be seen on:

Tiled Rendering
---------------
To use LOK Tiled Rendering you will need the following before the LOK includes:
#define LOK_USE_UNSTABLE_API
(This must be define before ANY LOK header, i.e. including the Init header.)
Currently only bitmap-buffer rendering is supported, with a 32-bit RGBA
colourspace (further alternatives could feasibly be implemented as needed).
Scanlines are ordered top-down (whereas LibreOffice will internally default
to bottom-up).
LibreOfficeKitGtk
*****************
Currently consists of only a very basic GTK+ document viewer widget.
The widget uses g_info() instead of SAL_INFO(), use the 'G_MESSAGES_DEBUG=all'
environment variable to display those messages.
