abiword.tgz is a package. In BL1 and BL3 packages are
installed with the pkg command:
---------------
pkg abiword.tgz
---------------
In BL2 (which uses the Slackware pkgtool), packages are
installed with the installpkg command:
----------------------
installpkg abiword.tgz
----------------------

abiword.tgz is 7mb in size. Fitting it on a floppy
will not be easy. :-)

BTW, abiword.tgz doubles in size when it is installed.
It won't fit in the default fs.img for BL3.

Cheers,
Steven
