Application for GSoC 2013 - improve Richedit

[Jactry Zeng]

Hi folks,

I am Jactry Zeng, a sophomore majoring in Electronic Science from China.
My nickname in #winehackers is Jactry.

I would like to apply for this year's GSoC to work for wine. I have
reported some bugs[1] of wine
and submitted a few easy patches[2] for wine. And I feel quite good to
study in wine community.

I am so interested in Richedit module[3]. Because a lot of software I
tested was blocked by bugs of
Richedit, such as wordpad, GTalk, QQ, Weibo Desktop and AliWangwang etc. I
would like to work for
this module during GSoC. I've reported a few bugs regarding Richedit[4].
And for bug 33191[5], I
have written a simple testcase to reproduce this bug.

And I found ITextDocument is just a stub now, I want to implement some
function of it, such as
ITextDocument::New, ITextDocument::Open, ITextDocument::Save,
ITextDocument::Range, ITextDocument
::GetName and ITextDocument::GetDefaultTabStop etc.
These functions are documented in MSDN[6], what's better, thanks to kind
people on codeproject[7],
there are some sample applications for study, which will give me a lot of
help on re-implementing
ITextDocument.

I think if I can finish this work, there are a lot of software will benefit
from it[8].

I appreciate for any comment.
Thank you. :-)
