If they made them into sunglasses I wouldn't be able to break them.

Dilbert insulting

I find Dilbert insulting. I have an uncle who is an engineer and he is nothing like Dilbert.

potential Mac developer

On: No Abiword For Mac?

I'd be interested in making a cocoa version of Abiword. I have lots of time, know a little bit a bout programming, and I have a new eMac (1 GB RAM). I think OS X could use another word processor that is native to OS X. We are still waiting for Mellel to be finished. Mariner Write and Zwrite are expensive and are not fully featured. Appleworks is nice, but I don't want to have to rely on one word processor.

On: Gobe Productive To Be GPLed

I use Abiword because it is like Opera - quirky and memory efficient - I only have 128 mb RAM and that doesn't seem to be enough for Open Office. One thing I don't like is that it uses inline stylesheets when not necessary - makes it hard to edit it bt hand. It integrates with The GIMP, thesaurus, on the fly spell check, language translation. It has trouble with html import but it works fine for print.
