Getting AbiWord to Work for Me, Using Ubuntu

 I was without Internet for 3 months and could not use Abiword with Debian Plasma.

Ultimately I managed to download AbiWord for Ubuntu 20.10, after a lot of trouble.

The Dialog WiFi broadband  won't let me sign up with broadband WiFi.

I got Debian Plasma to configure it automatically but with Ubuntu it won't sign.

I think Dialog broadband let you sign up only  once with KDE Plasma but won't configure with Ubuntu, in the same Laptop.

It won't sign up, in spite of typing the correct password.

Luckily I used my spare Dialog Dongle to sign up with Ubuntu and downloaded AbiWord.

It is only 1.6 MB package.and what a hastle,

What trouble to get a package I used for many years.

Thank Ubuntu for not removint it from the repository.

Even FATPup does not support AbiWord and it supports only LibreOffice.

I am currently downloading WPS suite for use in my Laptop.
