Word-processing terms



coi rodoi

One of my new quixotic projects is translating a word-processor
interface into Lojban. The WP in question is AbiWord (you can get
(very) alpha versions for most platforms from
http://www.abisource.com ).  The basic vocabulary needed, with
suggestions, is as follows - any help/corrections would be much
appreciated!  An asterisk represents possibly dubious
metaphorical usage.
