Hi Mati,
I think that Omer's proposal is interesting and that we can't prejudge the
average joe's reaction to it. There are a lot of features that are harder
than this one to understand and to use in OOo. I think that it's worth
including in a special or bonus release to see how it will go over

Hi,
I'm looking for a Linux software for planning a room. MS Visio does a fine job
in MS Windows.
Dia & Kivio should be the Visio alternatives, but I couldn't find (neither in
the software or on the net) shapes for room objects (doors, windows, beds).
Any idea?

Hi Nadav,
How about transferring the material as a whole to a community server,
like hamakor's or iglu's, where other sysadmins will take care of the
machine anyhow? As important as the ivrix site was, I doubt it will be
a burden on an existing server.

If you turn off bidi ordering an display the characters of a mixed text

logical text selection is identical to visual selection to the user. This

Visual selection, to me, means "selecting text from a continuous block
