http://www.abisource.com/twiki/bin/view/Abiword/IntlFaqSpellChecking is
an FAQ on the AbiWord TWiki -- perhaps someone (who knows what they are
talking about) can fix the page to make it deal with the issues brought
up here. Or, make (very specific and detailed) suggestions and I can
attempt to revise the page. Or, start one or more new pages with the
prefix "IntlFaq" if a different topic name is more appropriate.
Note: My name is on the bottom of the page as the most recent editor of
the page, but I did not originate the page, and all I really did was
some "mechanical" renaming. (By viewing (clicking) r1.1 I see that the
original author was Jesper Skov.)
regards,
Randy Kramer
PS: To edit the page you will need to register at
http://www.abisource.com/twiki/bin/view/TWiki/TWikiRegistration. You
will have to know your name, make up a wiki name (one will be suggested
for you), make up a password, know your country, and know your email
address. ;-)
You can just type plain text into the edit window and get reasonable
results. There are markup codes that you can and will learn if you
continue to work in TWiki, but I can go back and add some markup after
the fact if that is desired. (So you can just enter plain text.)
The way I start a new page (usually) is to go to an existing page in the
right web, like
http://www.abisource.com/twiki/bin/view/Abiword/IntlFaqSpellChecking,
then, in my brower's address bar I modify the WikiWord name of the page
to the name of the new page to be created, like:
http://www.abisource.com/twiki/bin/view/Abiword/IntlFaqNewPageOnSpellChecking,
then press enter.
If the page exists (by chance), the existing page will be displayed, if
it does not exist, you will be "prompted" to create the new page (just
click on "create").
