Now that I have disabled Abiword on one computer (by upgrading BL2 to 
SW9.1 library, which I will probably undo, and the computer won't boot any 
more anyway) someone offered me a large translation editing job in which I 
need to read Slovene (but not type it) and Abiword is of course displaying 
the standard upper ASCII characters.

How do I add a font to Abiword (and/or X) that would be compatible with 
whatever Windows is using so I could read it with diacritics instead of 
math symbols?  (I also need to turn off the spellchecker).  CP1252, I 
think.  (I rarely use Windows).

If all else fails I will have to (shudder) hook up the Win98 computer.

Also, why does BL3.3 busybox over a minute (total boot time 1.5 minutes) 
to do whatever it is doing on one computer where BL3 is on a 540MB (slow 
old) drive but there is also a 6GB drive with BL2 on it and BL2 boots 
okay.  Is this a hardware problem?  We have other drives.
