How to install koffice 2

This is quite useful for less knowledgeable users, although anyone fiddling with math should be using LaTeX. To the best of my knowledge, KFormula is not yet available for version 2.

Kexi sounds like a snack, but it is a database application. It aims to compete with its rivals, including Microsoft Access and Oracle Forms. The most important ingredient of them all - the word processor.

Like competition, it is capable of creating high-quality documents quickly and easily. Like OpenOffice, it gears toward separate styling. If you're used to Microsoft way of writing documents, it will take some time getting used to a slightly different approach. Like its counterparts, it has everything you need - and more. Krita is a graphics application that allows you to quickly create your own images.

It is roughly equivalent to GIMP. Krita is powerful and very simple to use. KPlato is a project management utility. It probably best compares to Microsoft Project. It allows you to do all those sorts of things upper management likes to see. You also have Karbon14, a geeky pun name for a vectored graphics application that allows you to create professional-looking artwork.

Karbon14 complements Krita well. There's also Kivio, a flowchart and diagram application. However, since KDE can also be installed on Windows , you can also enjoy KOffice on Windows, although this is a slightly cumbersome solution.

Furthermore, the suite is a bit too cluttered, in my humble opinion. It is true that Gnome applications are minimalistic, while KDE programs are usually armed to teeth with menus and buttons, all displayed to the users - and KOffice is no exception; a true KDE binary, it has everything you can ask for, probably too much for the casual eye of the casual user.

I dunno exactly how hard it is to explain, but remember this They can't wrap their minds around drivers. I should know. I have to try to explain things like this every day at the repair shop I work at. These people also think that their hard drives are the same as their ram, since both refer to the same units MB and GB. I can't tell you how many times a customer will.

The problem is not that there is an installer that takes care of the depenencies. What we need is something akin to a torrent program, where the dependencies and actual program are transmitted to one program whose extension is registered with a universal handler. This is no different than apt or those other page management solutions. The distinction is that grandparent post is complaining about an exe, and I agree that he shouldn't have an exe - t. Slashdot recently ran a story about a study of dial-up Internet users [slashdot.

The OpenOffice. While style is not unimportant, I'm quite a bit more interested in reasonable features, stability, and keyboard navigation. Here's a shout out to all ma homiez that really don't require a skinnable, theme-able printing dialog!

It's great that they've made it to Windows, but it needs some polish. And how about a new theme too eh? Windows doesn't look like Windows 3. That's an easy fix that should be included in the next version.

I am getting hard "missing file" errors. I know it's only Alpha, but at least it should be able to open the very initial part of the app. The first example is "phonon. Randomly looking on the web returned a blog entry by a guy who hated the phonon concept. An online installer shouldn't be 20mb, it should be less than 2mb and pull in just the components necessary to install the rest of the program.

The exact size is going to vary from application to application. The point of online installers is that they are in theory at least going to be downloading just what you're installing. If a program doesn't offer any options in terms of what to install, it shouldn't offer an online installer as there isn't really any benefit to doing so. Well, it guarantees that you are installing the latest version but I don't think that it's a real benefit either.

Latest version, fine Indeed, I was hoping they would be a little more quick with it, but I think you are right in saying "long term plan" was about right, although I imagine that if its anything like Slashdot et al that trying to find people to blaspheme and create Windows stuff is a problem. Although, im not sure where the 20MB's came from now anyways I responded before even looking.. I hate downloading a 20meg program, getting ready to install and use only to find out that you've then got to wait for the real meg program to download.

That does indeed suck, but it's offtopic, since the KDE Win installer is 1. That's not so big these days. Why had this taken so long? Being a enterprise developer using Qt, the worse that I've had to deal with is some linking issues with dynamic libraries and GUI adjustments when porting to windows from linux Windows Qt used to be only available with a expensive commercial license, and nobody from KDE felt like paying for the privilege of supplying free software to Windows users.

Calling it a review is stretching it Actually, alpha software is frequently buggy and prone to crashing, but not necessarily slow. Sometimes its faster than the final, actually and sometimes not. Which makes me concerned about what performance this is going to have. If it isn't much faster than OpenOffice, there is really not much chance for it to see wide adoption. While this is certainly great news for KDE realistically we are going to be able to count the number of Windows users on one hand.

While I know it can read ODF and. Personally I really hope that they port Kontact soon. It's streets ahead of Thunderbird and a half way decent competitor to Outlook. I can only add my voice of support. This is funny. He'd be very slightly concerned. Now tell him that it'll cost a few thousand dollars to remedy this, you'll have to accept vendor lock-in to prevent it, and that even that version has errors, just fewer, with your documents. You'd need to hire a portability expert to check all the documents for problems and.

Eh, whatever. You're probably one of those people who runs the pointer back and forth over the dock to watch the icons throb. Can you imagine if people who actually did things you know, useful things, that people would miss if they stopped being done were whiny about the look of their tools?

And this drill, it's green! My pants are blue, it'. Of course the fact that I'm not a coder, and have no way of knowing the answer to this is irrelevant.

His point about a clean code base is that it lowers the bar for new developers to join the project. By comparison, OOo internals are supposed to be a nightmare maze of twisty little passages and difficult to learn. Clean, lean, code that was easy to understand, debug and extend. The fruits of that we see today in Safari and Webkit. Really, I haven't seen much legit use of DLLs as they were intended shared libraries when it comes to applications. After "DLL Hell" everyone just started statically linking in the libraries, and can you blame them?

I'd have to give Microsoft some credit for trying at least, I guess. MSI installers do support Merge Modules, which help the OS to track what's been installed and what hasn't, and will un-inst. If it's free software it'll be useless, and you'll be stupid for talking about it, unless it's perfect. Not just working, but looking. On the other hand, if it's commercial software I have Canon CD printer stuff I think that installs 4 apps and drivers, with multiple popup windows, different progress bars, etc.

Anyways - a train wreck. And it's not that uncommon. What we need to do is charge, a lot, for KOffice. Then people will love it. Firefox was the single greatest tool for me to use to help people realize there's options other than Windows and OSX. Windows is skinnable thanks to a few hints from Opensource Guess which theme was used for the screenshots. Oh yeah?? I've been a TeX user most of my working life. But since becoming a teacher, I've realized that I need a word processor for making pretty handouts.

Each one of my handouts is layed out differently, so doing that in TeX was taking too much time. Panel Office Now 2. Trijo12 New member Banned. Hello dude, you dont have errors to list clients?
