To clarify, I proposed the following on irc:
- a slim libabiword with a sane API (just rob and dom are planning now)
- a libabiword-ui, which contains our current dialogs, and is a consumer
of said API
- an abiword binary which uses libabiword/libabiword-ui
It might be some more work, but in the end I think this satisfies any
need there might be in the real work.
Bye!
