Looks really great! Just a few little errors I noticed when looking
through the first chapter:
Requirements for MacOS X are 10.2, no Xfree necessary.
Requirements for GTK: I suspect that 2.2 is actually necessary now for
2.2 and 2.4 for 2.3/4, but don't quote me on that.

You might also want to do a quick Find/Replace for Abiword to AbiWord,
but that's really nitpicking (and I notice mainly just because neither
is recognized by spellcheck :D)

For future reference, you can save as XHTML/HTML in AbiWord if you want
to upload a draft that can be viewed in a web browser.

Keep up the good work!
