Re: Abiword display capabilities

Hi Mark,

I believe he is using the Linux version of abiword which can paste
HTML from the Clipboard into AbiWord. I'm not sure this capability
exists for our Windows build. We should definitely add this feature in
future versions of abiword.

Cheers

Martin

PS. I use this feature on my Linux version of abiword a lot.
