AbiWord 2.2 released!

AbiWord 2.2 was released today. To quote the announcement:


Among the new features in AbiWord 2.2 are:

A MacOSX port

Tables of contents

Document history/revisions

Text frames

Better support for international scripts and locales

List folding

Text wrapping around images

Faster rendering

Dashboard integration

Visual drag and drop

Since a few weeks I’m now playing with AbiWord as an alternative for the OpenOffice package simply because I don’t need most of those fancy little things most of the big players in the market come with but instead I was looking for a fast, lightweight text processor for simply things like letters, small texts etc. AbiWord looks like the right choice here for me :-) I especially liked the way it seems to handle text formating. When I first entered the formating dialogs I thought: Yeah CSS! ;-)
