It looks like SoftMaker Office is in the ports tree, at: /usr/ports/editors/softmaker-office I'll have to consider whether it's worth investigating as an alternative to OO.o for my own purposes. I'd rather not spend money on something that I never use except when someone else "forces" me to do so, against my better judgment and preferences, but it might be worth a few dollars to avoid the annoyance of dealing with OO.o on the rare occasion that I do need something MS Office compatible. --=20 Chad Perrin [ original content licensed OWL: http://owl.apotheon.org ] --mYCpIKhGyMATD0i+ Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.14 (FreeBSD) iEYEARECAAYFAkwNjQEACgkQ9mn/Pj01uKUfKgCbBD+2kcgARHzmOPksUUzRlDtn 3WEAoJ1jliLFyAN/GpylfEJRBKTtNIDy =a6uY -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --mYCpIKhGyMATD0i+--
