problems with rtf-output plugin

[Ferdinand Soethe <sa...@soethe.net>]

Tried to run some tests with the rtf-plugin today.
To get started I tried to run forrest on the sample documents.

I followed the instructions in the readme.txt saying

 - copy the "rtf-output" plugin directory to forrest/build/plugins
 - copy the WEB-INF directory to forrest/main/webapp
   (I did not copy the .svn subdir)
 - add "rtf-output" (without quotes) to your projects "project.required.plugins"
   property


Then I ran a forrest on the plugin-directory.
and had this error logged:

As the readme says, this plugin is pre-alpha. It does not currently work 
correctly.

With that in mind...

No idea.

Have you tried doing forrest run and clicking the link to minimal.rtf? 
According to the readme this is the only file that works (it doesn't say 
you have to use forrest run, but since forrest site doesn't work I guess 
that you do need to).

I think this plugin should move from here into the whiteboard, we do not 
want people to get the impression that it is even close to workable.
