    You're welcome, but you did the hard part.

    I just made and an educated guess hoped i was pointing you in the right
    direction.

    And thank you for taking the trouble to post a clear explanation to the
    list, hopefully this will make it easier for the next person to find the
    answer they are looking for.

    I have added a link to your helpful description in the Abiword (Twiki) FAQ
