    Everything runs as advertised on openoffice --it looks
    good. I tried a few files on it, etc. I have no use

    but ended up leaving it tied to Mozilla.

Yes thanks for the info. However I wen't the "source way", since I could copy
the basic huge source files over from my existing respositories on Linux.
This saved me quite a lot of badwidth...

Another question - why does the bootstrapping of java
do require gtk+ and glib? AWT is based on Motif. Argh... Linux
distro package dependency disease appears all over again here.
Somone writes some useless language wrapper for a lib or a
"plugin interface" for a scripting language used by maybe two people

different releases of them) and I have to start to waste
kBytes on stuff I never had any use for...
