I personally think the combination Beagle/Dashboard/AbiWord will make the writing of technical papers much easier. When I write such a paper I know I have lots of relevant documents floating around my desktop but finding them and extracting the useful bits is hard work. It is possible that Beagle, Dashboard and the AbiWord plugin will do a lot of that work for me automatically. We'll see :-) Cheers Martin _______________________________________________ Dashboard-hackers mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/dashboard-hackers
