I made a new build with the replaced libxml2-2.dll, as indicated by John Cliff. Someone please give it a try, to make sure it:
- Runs, without complaining about a missing DLL,
or crashing.
It has one complaint (not dll, just a message in the log window)...
** (inkscape.exe:3132): WARNING **: Format autodetect failed. The file is being opened as SVG.
But it still opened it (it seems to be a useless warning in this scenario since the file opened fine though).
- Can load and save a .svgz on Windows
It does load, with the warning as above, however it is not saving as .svgz... It is not in the dropdown of formats in the "Save As" dialog, and if I choose for it to detect by extension it appends .svg after the .svgz.
My guess is that it will work fine to save, with a little tweaking though, since it can open the files. AWESOME!
Just curious, would the svgz files be "format specific"? Meaning can they be either Inkscape SVG or regular SVG, or is it always just regular that's g-zipped? Basically, would there be a benefit to ditch Inkscape SVGs in favor of the SVGZs?
