Posted: Sun Jan 02, 2005 11:16 pm Post subject: OpenOffice and Ximian OO |
|
|
What are the differences between Ximian's OO and the standard Sun OO? I hardly ever use OO, so I don't need a giant office package but would like something compatible with MS's stuff. Is Novell's Ximian's more light-weight?
As for which one to grab is the oo-bin or oo-ximian-bin the source that gets compiled during emerge and is oo the prebuilt faster install less optimized one?
Thanks,
Nick |
