Yes, it's inside the template itself. Screenwriting is not rocket science, but out of 100K downloads, a dummy or two will always show up. ;-) >I also notice your facebook site (http://www.facebook.com/screenw) has an >"Instructions for dummies?" but there is really no instructions there. It was a question posted by one of them. ;-) I answered her question, and she's fine. But thanks for pointing out that discussion thread. Another one showed up, so I just answered his question. >Also, could you test the upload of your template into our Drupal repository? No. It would be a duplicate effort, at this point. And OOo has already forced me to duplicate these formatters, from the Extensions site to their relatively-new Templates site. Idiotic web architecture. Thanks for your kind comments, BTW! Are you the organizer in charge of LO Marketing? I'd like to have a private discussion with whoever is running the show, someone with a LO or DF email address. My email address is at the top of this page: http://scr.9TimeZones.com My thought is that creators should create, and organizers should organize, and that we should talk to each other directly. Former Sun CEO Jonathan Schwartz told me a while back that he was interested in Screenwright(R), but then he became distracted. I think that was when Ellison started breathing down his neck. ;-) >>13 Nov 2010 20:46:05 Andy Brown wrote: >I personally do not feel that adding another extension to the, already bloated >download, is going to help anyone. Bloated? Heh. Someone should have thought of that, about 70 Megs ago. ;-) If a user has low bandwidth, and is spending seven or eight hours downloading a 137Meg program, an extra 30 seconds or so to download another 17K is not going to make any difference at all. I used to have dialup, and developed some simple download instructions based on that lengthy process. In fact, those instructions: http://extensions.services.openoffice.org/project/scr2#n are still more user-friendly than OOo's (mine tell where/how to use the MD5 checksum). I'll donate them to LibreOffice, too. And thanks for your kind comments! >>14 Nov 2010 11:02:08 Dave Johnson wrote: >i am all fir it. Thanks, Dave. Succinct.
