You can set it up so you just call it from an icon and not start the whole LDXE. I havn't tried it with docx.
Abiword is definitely in extras-devel, as are all the other word processors except for Schmocs To Go.
Questions:

- Maybe the one in Debian repo is more stable quality?
- Which are the infos I need to enter into my app mgr to set up that Debian repo in N900?
- Will not starting LXDE make the startup of Abiword faster?
- How would I set it up to just call it from an icon?

A great many thanks to the one who enlightens me!
