What works
Almost everything! Wine 1.1.1 has *hugely* improved the usability of AbiWord 2.6.3.
In the previous Wine version (1.1.0) I had quite a few problems with the display of fonts (e.g. the default font was a weird wingdings-like one). I had *no problems whatsoever* with font-display when using Wine 1.1.1.
What does not
Only two minor things did not work -
a) (and this is pretty minor) - Tooltips on the toolbar buttons. When you put the mouse-pointer over a button, a tooltip should appear. That didn't happen.
b) The dropdown list of fonts seems to have quite a number of duplicates in it.
