Yes! Kingsoft is very good! I researched it some and apparently they used to have a version for ubuntu back in about 2005. It was then know as WPS. However the current release is windows only. Some have tried to run it under Wine, but not with great results.

Do you have a link for WPS

This software is for Windows and Android :shock:

We have LibreOffice, Koffice
and another suite I forget the name of

Running this under Wine is not worth the effort
We also don't run Mac office Suites [just in case you were wondering] :wink:

try here instead

Hi, Lobster, and all.

Did you mean the Softmaker suite ? (Textmaker, Planmaker, PresentationMaker) ?

Yeah, we do have all of the above, plus the regular Abiword/Gnumeric tandem for ordinary writing and number crunching. So... unless this "Kingsoft" (not "Kigsoft", BTW) is out of this world, we'll pass. If the people at Kingsoft had wanted to do a Linux version in the first place, they would have already.

So, inspired by the Ockham Razor Principle, let's pass, pass, pass... and not create more logical beings :? needlessly. 8)
