Ah, I'm happy with Abiword: seems to be an application that *more*

than just a marketing gig.
I'm writing a book on Abiword. I think that's pretty serious work.
That's a very good example. I hope there aren't too many people pressed
over the tangential direction of this thread, but it seems worthwhile.
Comparing MS Word to AbiWord is like comparing a BMW 750i to a Toyota
Corolla -- both will accomplish the same function (get you there), but one
is loaded down with several hundred "features" you will probably never use,
while the other is much more straight-forward in its approach.
