So I read your response to say...

If it is a read only display them it is not worth the time to bother with it...

That is certainly easier than trying to make it work :-)

From time to time the question pops up whether LO could support
Wordperfects reveal code. Sometimes it is stated that this feature could
be implemented by a macro/extension.

Bear in mind that "reveal codes" is an EDITING window. That was what was
wrong with MS's pale imitation. So if your macros merely display the
formatting of a paragraph, that is NOT NOT NOT "reveal codes", and any
WordPerfect lover will simply ignore it.

As a quick example - which illustrates its power - I seem to remember a
post to this list a week or so ago which said "if the first thing in a
writer document is a table, how do I put something in front of it?".
Word struggles with this, writer struggles with it ...

In WordPerfect, in RevealCodes, just click *in front* of the [table-on]
code, and start typing ... easy peasy !!!
