Synopsis
soffice [files
]
OpenOffice.org[10] is a comprehensive, integrated office software suite that can edit Microsoft Word, Excel, and PowerPoint files. Simply run:
$ soffice
and you’re ready to work. The same program edits all three types of files.[11] It is a large program that requires plenty of memory and disk space.
OpenOffice.org can also handle drawings (oodraw
command), databases (oobase
), and mathematical
formulas (oomath
). OpenOffice.org has more
information, or you can use the soffice
Help menu.
Some distros supply a different package, LibreOffice, a spin-off of OpenOffice.org with the same commands. See http://www.libreoffice.org/ for details.
