Had a look in the file and found the StarOffice line. Commented out

Tnx Carlos.
PS: If I were to open mc in a terminal(Ctrl-Alt-Fx) after signing
into KDE,
how could I still get the file to open in the appropiate viewer
under KDE ie
on the graphical terminal?
That's not easy, you have to inform the program what X terminal to use
- in Linux there can be many, so that's not simple to automate.
As with most of Linux it aint easy, but it can be done :)
HOW Can I open documents in the graphical interface ie (Ctrl-Alt-F7)
from using the cli? True Linuxers use the cli and find it OK, right? So
why is it so difficult to explain how to open a file in the designated
viewer?
Wouild it not be something like $> /document/dir/docname :0 to open the
document in Ctrl-Alt-F7?
If the document was to be opened in Ctrl-Alt-F8 then wouldn't it be
$> /document/dir/docname :1 ?
I have not tried any of this as I have reached the limits of my
knowledge/experience and need input.
Tnx Will, Leendert et al,
For the moment, the replies answer the question I raised.
Tnx
