we all need more round tuits  ;)

as you were the original desiring 'consumer' of abiword, I had 
asked you.  Events have moved a bit in that I have been now

as well as a well documented, and solved problem with the

yesterday), and thus my dis-interest in re-inventing or 
re-documenting this wheel ** yet again **
