There's apparently a bug already about it -- mine was marked as duplicate.

I'm running X-Tahr 1b3, for what it's worth.

have you tried focuswriter? i've only just begun testing (precise and unicornpup), but so far it's proven quick and reliable. i didn't need any dependencies in unicornpup or precise, and the linked pet is only two and half megabytes.

Not for me. I need some of that supposed 'clutter' -- font support, and formatting and layout stuff -- because I'm both literary and visual. Confusing, I know... before you ask, basically my mother is very literary (she has been both librarian and lawyer) and my father very, er, picture-oriented (he's a professional graphic artist) -- so, thanks to genetics, I got a bunch of both. I'm only just starting to develop my literary side seriously, though...

...which means I'm still very persnickety about typefaces and having things like italics and centering text and horizontal rules and such. I know I'm weird. I think it's the good kind, though

well, should you ever need it, it can do "things like italics and centering text and horizontal rules and such." bold and justification and things like indentation are fairly straight forward (and a desire for them doesn't strike me as particularly odd), but it seems line spacing requires you to pick single as the line spacing for your Theme (more or less your electric typewriter, complete with inconvenient-to-swap steel ball) if you also want the option to use double or triple. the program appears to lock you into many of your choices, or at least makes it a bit more difficult than one would expect to change them. i tried copying the font from one theme into a document using another theme (font and spacing get changed/preserved with the theme--maybe the way to change the latter is there and i can't find the command?), and the active document converted rather than displayed it. you get to choose opacity level on something more or less irrelevant (the image on your virtual paper and the image on the surface on which it sits), but you need to load a new theme to change the font you'll be using and, apparently, the line spacing; on-line (through an upload) or otherwise fuller word processors may also choose to not honor the font choice you made in focuswriter (i just checked in libreoffice5.1, and it gave two documents the same serif font despite one having been made with monospace and the other with sans), though direct copy-pasting should work the same as it appears to for just about everything else.

as to missing the clutter and menus and tool bars--beyond hitting alt+f to access the file menu, i'm not sure how to toggle the top set visible. tabs are easily navigable with shortcut keys, but i don't see any way of similarly conjuring its appearance (ctrl+tab/0-9 and alt+ctrl+tab switch between the tabs on the lower bar with no visual fanfare or the option for any, somewhat strange given how much effort seems to have gone into giving users the ability to customize the interface).

anyway, that's my review and how-to of this virtual typewriter/word processor. stuck without libreoffice, i'd use focuswriter over abiword and live with the weirdness so i don't have to live with the crashes (the older version purported by some to be somewhat stable is the same version that crashed on me often enough that i'm put off by anything so branded). development on it appears to be active, but you're right, it does have some major weaknesses. overall, though, i think it's a decent alternative for those having bad luck with libre.

hth.

edit: i was using the Session feature to change between Themes and save the test documents, but i don't think the results would have been any different had i just saved documents directly under two different themes set from within the same session.

Finally, I solve my problem. I use ppm and search

Code: Select all

texlive-extra-util

And dpkg-deb -x ing all my .deb file.
Then from my linux mint drive (sda8), i copy everything in var/lib/texmf to my extract folder. With fmtutil-sys --all, everything is okay. Now, i can use texmath addon in this libreoffice.

Very Kind of you, Vicmz, but office work is not my cup of tea. Poor Puppy users having work to do at home, after a long day at the office, typing letters for the boss, or checking activities of employees in calc, the spreadsheet, or in the database, to create themselself.
I prefer music , jukebox, and movies.
Libre Office users have no time to feed back in Puppy Linux forum, no time to post. Be aware i wonder a lot for them, eight hours of microsoft office having been my job for years.
However, if they need help to create their Database, i can help
remove buildin : Libre office (FatSlacko 5.3.3)
I wll try to install a jukebox, some pets by vicmz are available for Puppy passengers ( in cabin, not in the bulks)

Instead of using the pet, I tried directly the 64bits debian flavour on tahrpup64 from libreoffice.org

With the latest 5.1.4

root# sudo dpkg -i *.deb
dpkg: can't open '/var/lib/dpkg/status': No such file or directory
root#

OK, didn't know what to do, so I tried to install manually every deb packages and start LO.
Well, LO starts but during boot it prompts an error

/root/%U does not exist.

and then LO closes.

However, if I start in a terminal window

Code: Select all

root# libreoffice5.1 --writer
javaldx: Could not find a Java Runtime Environment!
Warning: failed to read path from javaldx

And LO writer this time opens.

Of course, if I install jre-8u65-x64.pet I don't get the JRE error from the console, but it doesn't change anything with the menu>Documents>LO writer

Anybody knows how to fix this?

[vicmz]

Hello live,

You have to manually edit each .desktop file of /opt/libreoffice5.1/share/xdg and remove the %U value in the field "Exec="

Kind of an odd request. I need LO 3.5.4 (or similar) to deal with a horizontal rule issue due to the way handling those changed at the beginning of LibreOffice's 4.x.x offerings...

Unfortunately, on my copy of X-Tahr 1b3, LO throws an exception of some eccentric and cryptic sort if I try and run it; it's the one from Ibiblio (specifically --> http://distro.ibiblio.org/puppylinux/pe ... -US_gz.sfs ).

Would someone be able to rejigger/repackage that so it'll run on my Pup, or must I resort to the embarrassment of having to borrow my mother's copy of MS Word...?

EDIT: nevermind. Downloading LO 3.5.4 for Windows... I forgot, with my new setup I'm dualbooting Puppy and W7. I don't have to like it but I guess it comes in handy sometimes...
