Point 9: OO 2.0 Your Open Office OpenOffice is a very high performance office package compatible with Microsoft Office files.
In Puppy Linux, the installation of OpenOffice 2.0 differs completely from other installations. You will only add in the same directory where you or Puppy did create the main file PUP001 file a second big file named USR_MORE.SFS (Windows XP users be careful: Windows XP users with the file system NTFS must do that from Windows XP!). At the next start find Puppy Linux itself by starting the USR_MORE.SFS containing the completely pre-prepared Open Office 2.0 system.
Download the USR_MORE.SFS into the same main directory as PUP001!
Use the ROX Filer (by clicking on the icon "Home" on your desktop, then on the icon "up" in the ROX window) to start OpenOffice. In the path /user/local/OOo-2.0/program/ you will find the start file "soffice" (with an icon like a gearwheel). You can either click on it to start it from this point immediately or slide it to the desktop making so a link icon on the desktop.
This is really fast and not difficult!
Point 10: Give a smart icon to OO 2.0 and add it in your start menu
You can now see the ugly gearwheel icon on your desktop and use it. It is really the most important. But you can complete yourself the installation with a smart icon and with a link in the start menu that appears if you right click on your desktop! This is about the same way for all programs that you perhaps will add in the future to your new system using packages prepared for slackware
Change a smart icon on the desktop: You probably will not use different programs for the same purpose and can use the available icons for the new ones. For example, you will use OpenOffice Write and not Abi Word. The icon is already on the screen. You need the exact path of "Open Office Write". You search in this case with "uXplor2", the second filer from Puppy Linux. "uXplor" works different from "ROX". To go to the next subdirectorie you have to click on the + in the diagram. And you have to click very strong! What is the advantage of "uXplor" in this case: You can copy the path in the commando line with CTRL C as usual! So
look for "swriter" in the path indicated above and copy the path
click on the big icon named "write" with the right key
move your pointer to "edit item"
you will find that this icon works with a default word processor and that it is registered in the file /usr/local/bin/defaultwordprocessor
