Hello again, If you can't get gnumeric working on OpenBSD, why don't you install one of the linuxes? There are a number of friendly distributions (Debian, Red Hat, Ubuntu, Mandriva ...) which have effective output onto pdf or onto paper. You could even use a bootable CD version of linux and you would not have to install anything onto your hard disk.
Please refrain from further posting on this list about alternatives on OpenBSD. That distribution has a number of resources which are better suited to your question. *This* list is specifically about gnumeric so asking about alternatives is inherently off topic. Personally, I will not answer any more of your questions on this subject. Note, in passing, that *every* one of your paragraphs begins with the first person personal pronoun. This list is about a community not about *you*, please treat it as such. all the best, adrian On Mon, 2005-06-13 at 16:53 -0500, Dave Feustel wrote: > I write this as a person very committed to OpenBSD as a secure desktop. > > I can say from experience that, running with KDE, neither Kspread nor > Gnumeric > on OpenBSD 3.6 are useable (by me, at least) for hard copy of even simple > spreadsheets. > > I am beginning to think *very* seriously about using a Windows computer > *just* to run MS Excel so I can get reliably and straightforwardly the hard > copy > I need.
