Yes, I didn't realize there are plugins already available. Dom has answered 
this, and I just recovered from my high moment finding the thesaurus plugins 
available. 
More and more people are converted to linux and abiword in my community, and 
I just set up 3 linux machine (with abiword of course) for 3 lay people. They 
are all complaining about thesaurus. Now I can show them !! :) That's why I 
asked.

I fully understand this, and I am grateful for the developers of abiword. 
They've done an incredible job. As a college student, it's impossible for me 
to sponsor. The only way that I think I can contribute (and I want to) at 
this point is by using abiword and testing, filling bugs report if I find 
any. 
I've joined the dev list also, in the hope that I can contribute something 
more since I am a programmer my self, but I think I still lack the knowledge 
and courage to join in yet. Maybe in the future.
