Re: How can I configure my OpenOffice and Xserver to speak the same language?
Thanks Ian.
I'll work with it tomorrow again. For tonight I'll just comment two things:
First of all: I have similar problems with KDE. Byt OO was easier to follow.
That's why I concentrated on OO.

Yes, and I'm so old that I cook up my scripts in csh or awk whenever
they are for
_private_ use. I learned csh before Larry Wall invented his perl language.
Parallel processes were written in assembler in those days. My first higher
computer language was Algol60 by Peter Naur. I worked in the same company
as he did. But in those days I did Numerical Analysis. I heard about
Unix in 1970
but was more interrested in Per Brinch Hansen's "Monitor". And in those days
I could work all night.
Have a nice evening!
Hans
