Yes, Abiword is an excellent lightweight word processor, and cross-platform without dumb ole Java is a wonderful thing. KWord is nice too, but so far is *nix only. One Abiword feature that I used to love, and I hope it still has, is the ability to select blocks of text vertically. Now that is a kewl thing. Neither one is meant to be a bloated behemoth like OpenOffice, and I hope they never try to be. And yes, thank you FOSS!
