This tree contains the following top-level subdirectories:
src
All source code is under here, including applications,
library modules, and third-party source code.
ac-helpers
Autoconf macros used by the autoconfiscated build system (configure).
docs
Documents related to the project. Includes specifications,
design documents, and the like. You should also find instructions
for how to build the tree in here, within the "build" subdirectory.
po
Localized strings for each locale we support, in PO format, as well
as scripts for conversion to and from Abi's native .strings files,
which are the files actually used directly by the program(s). PO
files are maintained as a convenience for translators, many of whom
are already accustomed to working with them (as opposed to .strings).
test
Test files for AbiWord (not explicitly part of regression testing).
user
Support files, other than code, which need to be installed
on the user's machine, are stored in here. Items which
are too large to be practical do not necessarily go here,
such as the fonts.
flatpak
Files to build AbiWord as a flatpak using flatpak-builder. See
instructions below.
Flatpak
We support flatpak:
To build:
$ flatpak-builder --force-clean --repo=repo abiword flatpak/com.abisource.AbiWord.json
To run:
$ flatpak-builder --run abiword flatpak/com.abisource.AbiWord.json abiword
