    Because the last time I forwarded to the list, the email was missed, I'm going
    to do this again, but now, I'm going to tell you this is the address: herbert
    rich at earthlink network

    Based on the information he found, I'm stabbing a guess this is out of date,
    but unless someone /knows/ they're ship something newer, I have to,
    unfortunately, shut my hole ;oP

    Thank you, Richard, for your 'Net Archeology

    SCO Linux and Abiword ?

    Well not according th this site :
    http://distrowatch.com/table.php?distribution=sco

    it's not entirely clear that they did ship it either..

    More research shows this page ( if you go through their front page
    it's under skunkware bottom right )

    http://www.sco.com/soss/

    where they show this

    Name: abisuiteVersion: 0.7.14
    Summary: Lean and fast full-featured word processor

    Now in the isos that are there .. ( im writing as i go along so it's kind
    of like a 24 hours of software investigation :)

    ftp://ftp.iso.caldera.com/pub/skunkware/ ( no joke)
    there's a bunch isos there .. go up on the dir tree

    SCO Linux ISO images that were previously available from
    this FTP site are no longer available. Source RPMS for
    these products can be found at ftp://ftp.caldera.com/

    Would need a working download and a check of the ISO they offer there
    Ok well..

    ftp://ftp2.caldera.com/pub/soss/RPMS/

    Parent directory
    Name Type Size Time
    aalib-1.2-215col.i586.rpm RPM 66 KB 2001.05.30

    abisuite-0.7.14-1col.i586.rpm RPM 4,651 KB 2001.05.30
    00:00:00
    Ah here goes :)

    They still offer abisuite for download through the caldera ftp that's for sure

    I beleive this to somewhat answer the question.

    If you need more details .. just mail this bear ;)
