Well. AbiWord seem to be international. And as an internationnal software he
needs to be 100% translated in the maximum language. I don't like to see a
manual or a software not in my language.
I'm glad because right now te AbiWord manual is 100% French! ;o) But I think
you guys have to translted my french help in 100% English (screencaps, legend
of the screencap and everything).

This is the solution! Make manual in many different language, and then make
it separate download.

No. Not all: screencaps, legend and even some sections. And I don't know if
the translation sounds good in English.

I'll explain it soon in the French manual! ;o)
