This is the first "official" "release" of DITAfy. I'm calling it version 0.1. At this stage, it is reasonably stable and reliable for its purposes. It should work properly on most machines and convert .docx files to DITA task topics without any issues. Refer to the README for more info on troubleshooting and usage.

Tested features that are considered "stable" in this release:

  • Fully functional graphical interface
  • Convert .docx to DITA task topic instantly
  • Select input file and output directory with system file browser interface
  • Automatic keyword replacement/insertion (also works for uicontrols, menucascades, etc)
  • Automatic "Note" detection
  • Title and short description detection

Features still in testing that are present in this release

  • Automatic image saving and handling
  • Removal of blank paragraphs
  • Removal of "Step [number]:" or "Step" from the name of the topic (more options will be made available for this later)

Please note that even features that I consider "tested" are still prone to error, mistakes, and other issues. Use at your own risk. At this point, this software is too primitive and early in its development to be recommended for use in an actual documentation workflow. It works and can help with efficiency/productivity, but I do not take responsibility for any files that are lost, damaged, corrupted, irreversibly altered, or in any other way negatively affected by use of this program.
