Oops - thought the reply button would send it to the list. My apologies.

anyway- reminds me to be more careful.

What method did you use to change the preferences?  Are you able to 
reverse
this action using the same method?
There is a preference option in the preferences(?) or options that is 
only visible while there  is an editing window open. From memory it was 
'turn off Unix font paths'. I was .. it seemed like a good idea at the 
time ;-(

when I try to open a file (tried several types) or create a new file, I 
get a long dialogue message, the gist of which is:

AbiWord could not load the following font or fontset on the X Window 
System display server:
[-*-Times New Roman -regular-r-*-*-*-0-*-*-*-*-*-*]

etc

While the dialogue is open, I cannot get to the menus from the windows.

The okay (only) button closes the window.

I have tried to remove all abi* files and reinstall with no luck. I 
cannot even find an XF86config file.
