ATTN: AbiWord 2.8.4 Released!

AbiWord v2.8.4 Released

AbiWord 2.8 is a multi-platform, collaborative word processor that
combines state-of-the-art usability, powerful features, and excellent
interoperability. Furthermore, it features a powerful framework for
supporting custom extensions. AbiWord v2.8.4 is the latest stable
release, which greatly improves AbiWord's support for non-Western,
complex scripts.

This release includes the following changes (and more!):

  * Fix a bug where deleting a character in non-Western scripts caused a
    random number of characters to be deleted.
  * Fix cursor movement for complex scripts, as text cluster boundaries
    are now honored (Linux and Mac OS X).
  * Fix the text rendering of complex scripts when text is selected
    (Linux and Mac OS X).
  * Fix text rendering errors when font substitution was involved (Linux
    and Mac OS X).
