AbiWord Microsoft Visual C++ 6.0 project files and project workspace

Files top copy or rename to make it build:

The MSVC build system now copies all config.h and *.h.in files itself.

To build Aspell support in MSVC:

Download and install Aspell from http://aspell.net/win32/files/Aspell-0-50-3-3-Setup.exe
Download Aspell dev from http://aspell.net/win32/files/aspell-dev-0-50-3-3.zip
Unzip Aspell dev to abiword\MSVC6\pspell\

You should now have this peer directory structure:
abiword\pspell\
abiword\pspell\include\
abiword\pspell\include\aspell.h
abiword\pspell\include\pspell\pspell.h

Ensure that HAVE_PSPELL is defined when building these files: 
abiword\abi\src\other\spell\xp\spell_manager.cpp
abiword\abi\src\af\xap\xp\xap_HashDownloader.cpp

* New build configurations could be made for MSVC *

To build Aspell support in Mingw:

Download, build and install Aspell from http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/aspell/aspell-0.50.3.tar.gz
* The AbiWord configure script may have to be modified to allow Aspell on Windows
* Build AbiWord - it should just work
* Somebody should tweak the code to allow statically linked Aspell with Mingw
