Hi :)
I did a google search about it and found a few proprietary tools that might 
work or might be dodgy.  I hate all that freeware/shareware or low cost dodgy 
looking proprietary looking stuff.  There is just no way of knowing what it's 
doing and there is a reputation that they do nasty stuff quite often.  If you 
are using the tools on Wine in Gnu&Linux then you are probably a lot safer than 
using the same tools in Windows ... 

On the other hand some of the best-ever tools and games and things have been 
released that way so it's really difficult to tell if they are just falling 
foul of the same type of FUD that OpenSource gets tarred with.  

I used to have an amazing Firewall that also acted as a package manager for 
updating drivers and everything in Windows Xp.  Their company got bought-out 
and then the product just vanished and i lost my installer.  Another was an 
awesome anti-spyware thing that was maintained by just 1 person but still 
managed to stay ahead of companies such as Norton/Symantec almost all the time. 
 

There seems to be some confusion whether .ord are system config files or 
something like that or CAD files!  Quite a difference!  The proprietary tools 
seemed to deal with .ords that were system files.  

I'm on a different machine today and haven't googled on here yet and prolly 
wont have time to sory.  
Regards from
Tom :)

Subject: [libreoffice-users] .ORD files
 

Hi, I am going to throw this in for comment. Not expecting much 
response. I saw a mention on linuxquestions relating to reading a .ord file:

    ORD is a file format used by OMAX software to store routed tool path
    information. This is the information that the controller needs in
    order to machine a part.

The guy wants to know whether there is an application which can open 
this type of file. I guess the question is, has anyone ever heard of 
this file type before?

Cheers
