         Exactly what I was trying to say: now that I know enough, I
do understand it, and don't blame any of you in the least. I regret
it -- killfiling the list goes hard against the grain -- but I don't
blame you, and would more than likely do the same. <sigh>

         Thanks anyway for putting up with those of us who know so
little! We do like AbiWord, a lot, or we wouldn't be here nor care
about the list.
