Dom's templates, what templates? I am taking a business communication
course this semester and I have a whole book of templates that I could
provide. Just give me a how and where.

Just out of curiosity, nothing more, has anybody thought of putting in
File->Templates for easy access to whatever templates we make available?
I think the MS Office way of doing it is bulky and clunky, hard to use,
etc.. If templates were in the File menu then AbiWord could open a
specific directory with all the templates available. Also, upon save, it
would by default save (templates only) to this directory. Don't even
know if it is possible, just thought I'd throw out the idea.
