Hey all,

Trying to dink around with the abiword plugins, but I'm having problems
getting it to compile. Both of my systems are giving me the same error:

[jared@kinowin abiword-plugins]$ ./autogen.sh

I'll be around on IRC tonight if it'd be easier to work on through that,
otherwise email works. :)

I've also noticed that there is a data directory within the aiksaurus plugin.
The datafiles look like the old (aiksaurus <= 0.11) format and I don't think
that they ought to be there...?

I would get rid of them myself but I don't know whose territory this is... :)

Thanks,
        Jared
