I tried AbiWord with earlier versions of BL3 without success.
It works fine with 3.31.

No, AbiWord works fine on the loop (fs.img) version of 3.31.
It's even got room for some other add-ons.  I'm currently
running AbiWord and Sylpheed on the same fs.img.

icewm is a replacement for swm.  It is highly recommended,
especially for people wanting to run AbiWord or Sylpheed.
However, don't install it on BL 3.3 yet.  It fouls the
new xinitrc in BL 3.3.  A new icewm package will be up
soon.

AbiWord works fine.  The locale warning is not fatal.

Cheers,
Steven
