The nightly builds on abiword.pchasm.org are as uptodate
as a pristine cvs build can be. These are the builds
my tinderbox client [KJD] makes, so if it is green
there should be new builds and if its red (as it
has been for a short while) there won't be any.
The last Sept 4 build (just binary) doesn't crash for
me (Win 2000) loading World.abw. I don't have any of the
extra fonts I suppose, so all of the one marked needing
them are boxes and a few of the Hawaiian characters as well;
and no dictionaries are available.

You mean the just Abiword.exe binary doesn't run?
The installer just copies the binary and some support
files [help, ...], but the executable should work
without them and that is probably a bug if it doesn't.
What error do you get? The head builds are presently
done with MS VC 7, so unless the cybercafe's have the
Net or whatever supplement installed, you will need
to also download the corresponding C runtime library
[even to install]. I can switch it an older MS VC if
desired (which requires the more commonly used/already
installed C runtime library).
