Hi folsk,
This may seem like a really dumb question - do linux or unix
programs work on Mac OS X? The reason I ask is because Abiword is
avaliable for Linux but not yet for Mac OSX, and I want to try it
on Mac.
Also, does anyone know how to compile Abiword source code on the
Mac to use it as an application.
Thanks
Best Wishes
James
