Thanks for the rapid responses! The version with one hyphen worked (not
with two). I also discovered a new way to exit the program: Just invoke
Help->About Abiword! I'll be looking forward to the release with the

Is there any place where the command line options (or anything else) are
documented? Or do you have to look at the source? Actually though, I
find it to be very intuitive.
