Paul,

Thank you for your reply. I guess all I can do is ask you to reconsider this
as a possibility as I think it would be quite valuable to a lot of people and
is a fairly standard inclusion in most decent word processors eg StarOffice
which I am using until Abiword matures enough and contains the features I need
for everyday use.

Nevertheless I look forward to the next release.
