It might be easier simply to remove the \\ that offends you. The code will not be nice, but it should be the smallest possible change(s) to get your code up and running. > b) After patching this source code, how to compile this for my Dia version > running on OS X from Mac? > I assume that you've obtained your Mac version from http://dia-installer.de. It's build using MacPorts. The Port file can be found under
http://trac.macports.org/browser/trunk/dports/gnome/dia/Portfile And the MacPorts page contains detailed step-by-step installations how to compile Dia and many other packages on Mac OS X. Be warned, though. There might be a bit of a learning curve. >>> As these export options are not available: How about an additional PDF >>> export filterh >>> > that skips escaping? > Yes.

Something that should be much more complicated (please correct me if I'm wrong). Another export format extends the long list of export formats, but would be straightforward to implement. > OT: I now subscribed to the mailing list.

"Moderating a message" means that someone has to look at your message and confirm that it's not SPAM and should be passed on to the subscribers of the mailing list. Thus it's quite likely that posts of people that aren't subscribed reach the mailing list delayed - which in turn will delay the answers. Subcribers have the honor of getting questions answered quickly.
