Question about Importing Styles in AW2

>
> Hi,
>
> This is a follow-up to an IRC chat question. I'm using AbiWord 2.x for OS
> X. I would like to make up a bank of style types for use in documents I
> commonly write. I noticed that the Format drop-down has an option for
> "Import Styles" (Format > Style > Import Styles). The IRC folks said this
> refers to "Document Styles" of the kind in the <styles></styles> section
> of the ABW file.
>
> My questions:
>
> * What is the format one would use to write up a "document styles" sheet
> (similar conceptually to a cascading style sheet) for an AbiWord document
> to "import?"
>
> * Could one create a blank ABW doc and hand-edit the "styles > s"
> elements and import this into new documents.
>
> Thanks very much. Please reply to me off list.

> PS: 'abi' is a Suauic (Papuan Tip) word for 'build' or 'make.' It is often
> affixed to nouns to create a compound verb that means to make
> such-and-such noun (e.g. abilabiya means 'make sago [labiya].')
