OK. Problem solved. I was experimenting and found that abiword worked fine if I simply typed "abiword" in an xterm window. But it crashed if I tried to launch it using the icon I had created in WindowMaker. I checked the settings for the icon, and found that it was set to call /sw/bin/abiword_d. I removed the "_d", and everything was fine. Lesson learned - don't create icons in Windowmaker by simply dragging the icon for a running application to the icon well. You might have to fine tune the settings to get things to work. Abiword 1.0.1-2 appears to work fine now that I've sorted out how to start it :) Thanks, Kevin _______________________________________________________________ Don't miss the 2002 Sprint PCS Application Developer's Conference August 25-28 in Las Vegas -- http://devcon.sprintpcs.com/adp/index.cfm _______________________________________________ Fink-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/fink-users
