Actually, Martin Sevior and myself have been working on a styles dialog. If
you use a Unix CVS build (or nightly build) you can check this out. It's
really quite cool and *very* functional. For those who don't run our CVS
buils, it's *very* similar to the MSWord 2000 dialog in both appearance and
functionality.
Styles are invaluable. We need to get more people using them, and that means
writing up a tutorial or FAQ or something. This will most certainly have to
get done before 1.0 is released, and hopefully sooner.
