For those wanting a 2.0.2 build for Windows, I've uploaded one
at my usual location:
http://abiword.pchasm.org/builds/release/win32/2.0.2/official/personal/setup_abiword.2-0-2.exe
(nondirect downloads should link to http://abiword.pchasm.org/builds/release/ )
Notes: It works (at least starts and displays the readme) for
Microsoft Windows (R) XP and 95, however the document properties
(meta data dialog) doesn't work on 95. The installer also
works fine for me on both systems, including the ability to
download additional dictionaries. As no one who has indicated
the installer crashed on W95 for them has offered to help
track down the cause, I have no intention of trying to determine
what it is (the best they can hope for is periodic updates to
NSIS or the installer script fix it).
I will see about building plugins sometime this week and
adding a setup that includes them; in the meantime, the 2.0.1
plugins seem to work just fine. [I've had no motivation to
do anything on a computer lately, hence the delay providing
this build.]
Please be aware the download page is not accurate in regard
to plugins available for Windows. Glib based plugins are
not in that package (ie no WordPerfect nor OO importer) and
the text summarizer is not built for Windows presently.
