AbiWord - it’s so close…
So a little .pc file tweaking fixed OpenDocument and WordPerfect, I realized I already have a good install of link-grammar which already has a configure, and I could bug someone to roll a tarball with configure if I really needed it to bootstrap again. Psion plugin still conflicts on load, but I expected that and the workaround is in bugzilla bug 9420 - don’t install/load the bz2abw plugin.

Which leaves me with the menu problem. Initial testing results of other people with my installers made me think I was going insane, but it turns out they were installing just the math plugin, while I installed all the plugins. Now the bug can be reproduced. Turns out it’s a conflict between the Paint Plugin and the Math Plugin, as they both add to the same menu and that somehow breaks our menuing code. This is a bit above my head, but I’ll look at it and make some motions as if I knew what I was doing in that code, and one day I very well may.

Please, take a peek if you know about Abi or about Windows ui programming - we need more eyes to make this shallow.
