Hi everyone: I just found out about abiword and I think it is a great idea. I usually use emacs and TeX, but have found that I need to work on doc files more and more. What a pain. However abiword looks like a great way to do this.
However, I have two problems: 1) It crashes a lot. Once every 5 minutes. I know that this does not tell you a lot, but it makes the code alost unusable. I am running Red Hat 7.1, if that helps. The problems seem to be reproducible. For example, if I start a number list and change the style to `upper case list', the program crashes. The error message is: /usr/bin/abiword: line 67: 1426 Aborted $ABISUITE_LIBEXEC/AbiWord_d "$@" 2) It will not start at all in my high resolution mode. I use my laptop in two resolution modes: 1400x1050 and 1024x768. Abiword works fine in the low resolution mode, but in high resolution I get a window that opens and says: Abiword could not lead that following font or fontset from the X Window System display server: [-*-Times New Roman-regular-r-*-*-*-0-*-*-*-*-*-*] Thanks for any help you can give me! -- --------------------------------------------------------------------- Hal Levison [EMAIL PROTECTED] - Address until 6/03: Observatoire de la Cote d'Azur B.P. 4229 06304 Nice Cedex 4 Tel: (33) 4 9200 3191 France Fax: (33) 4 9200 3033 - Permanent address: Space Studies Department Southwest Research Institute (WWW) http://www.boulder.swri.edu 1050 Walnut St, Suite 400 Tel: (303) 546-0290 Boulder, CO 80302 Fax: (303) 546-9687 USA --------------------------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe from this list, send a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word unsubscribe in the message body.
