If you are thinking of using Nvu, you probably will be happier with KompoZer.

Vaughn Grisham Alpine, Texas Hello Vaughn If you found Frontpage to be that great, you have a lot to learn. If you want to get a basic web editing tool, get a copy of seamonkey, from the same people that make Firefox. There is also nvu but I prefer Quanta plus. They should both be available to install in Ubuntu. http://www.nvu.com/ http://quanta.kdewebdev.org/ For desktop publishing, look at scribus or dia. http://web2.altmuehlnet.de/fschmid/about.html http://www.gnome.org/projects/dia/ Welcome to the world or selection and choice. You can choose which program best suits your needs, not some software sellers point of view. And it doesn't cost you anything to try different programs. I don't use Ubuntu but in Fedora there are tools to look for and find all the different programs available. Just search for what you want and add them to your machine. Test and if you don't like them, get rid of them. You have already experienced that with Gnumeric and OpenOffice.org. -- Robin Laing - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Well Writer is a basic WYSIWYG HTML editor. there are better (suited-to-the-task-and-hence-leaner) wysiwyg web authoring cum publishing tools for linux. some should already be in your distribution. > > Also, I think that Gnumeric is a great spreadsheet program.

Goto Tools menu and click on Customize... select the Keyboard tab and if you want you can configure the keybindings similar to excel or even something totally different which your fingers and wrist will thank you for. -- Diabolic Preacher As Is Blog: http://pintooo15.livejournal.com/ Bookmarks: http://simpy.com/user/dpreacher -BEGIN GEEK CODE BLOCK- Version: 3.1 GCS/IT d+(-) s+:+ a22 C++@ UL@ P L+(++) E- W++ !N o?
