“Not only can this 25MB word processor do what its bigger,
heavier, slower brothers are capable of, it also has many useful
features that you will not find in these bigger, heavier and slower
programs.

“Take a moment or two, lean back and read on why AbiWord should
be one of your first choices when it comes to word processing.

“AbiWord is cross-platform

“AbiWord runs on major operating systems, including Linux,
Windows and Mac. It also has good international language support.
It works well with right-to-left languages, like Arabic or
Hebrew.”
