Hello,

I'm Ahmed (Xtreme) and i send this mail to give a new suggestion for the next version of OpenOffice which is let the OpenOffice to be work on the different environments.


i'm offer to make a 3 things:

Portable version: which will let OpenOffice to be portal and can be run from any USB so that i can get it with me anywhere to be able to use it on any PC. Also all the settings you make are saved.

PE plugin: Which will let OpenOffice to be used on PE systems. As PE can be put on CD/DVD or USB Flash so that you will have a complete run OS that is portable and can be used any where so that the OpenOffice will gain this advantage and will be a Portable Office which mean that my office in my hand and i can use it to wirte whatever i need when i want at any PC which other companies give it to there users.

- for more info. about PE check below section.
=====================================

Introduction:
Bart's PE Builder helps you build a "BartPE" (Bart Preinstalled Environment) bootable Windows CD-Rom or DVD from the original Windows XP or Windows Server 2003 installation/setup CD, very suitable for PC maintenance tasks.

It will give you a complete Win32 environment with network support, a graphical user interface (800x600) and FAT/NTFS/CDFS filesystem support. Very handy for burn-in testing systems with no OS, rescuing files to a network share, virus scan and so on.
This will replace any Dos bootdisk in no time!
More about Bart's PE here -> http://www.nu2.nu/pebuilder/

I'm working on making and developing a plugin for PE field and i really made a lot of plugins like
- Windows Media Center Edition.
- Media Portal.
- ACE Mega Codec.
- K-Lite Mega Codec.
- Windows Media Player (WMP 11).
- Winamp.
- Windows Tablet PC (BETA).
and more but those are the most popular and the only plugins in the world.
=====================================

Unattended Installation: Which will let OpenOffice to be able to integrate with windows installation so that you don't need to install it every time you install windows (i.e. OpenOffice will be installed automatically like Microsoft Windows Media Player).


Now let's talk about purpose of any program.
Any one or company make a program he have one purpose which is spread this program and dominate on the field which program support.

Support the program with a lot of options.
Make a friendly GUI for users.
Make a commercials for the program.
Give the users ability to try the program for free.

The first two points are back to developers team and the 3rd one back to Sales or Marketing team.


Let's answer you question Can you tell me what benefit it would provide?


Allow to program to work on another platform which is Preinstalled Environment (PE) that sure beside normal windows platform which is enhanced and become more easier by adding unattended version.
By being portable i will be able to use it anywhere on any PC but what if this PC have a password on it and i can't access it to use my portable OpenOffice. It is not a problem, all you need is just restart this PC and run it from your PE system and write whatever you wanna using your office.
let's take an example: if you have PE system and your portable version of OpenOffice on your USB. All you need is to plug you USB to PC then

Run your Office if the PC is not protected by any passwords.
Or

Reboot this PC and boot from your PE System so and write what you wanna and enjoy with the PC to do anything you wanna with it.
Thus this will satisfy the first point i said before.


3. By adding an option in the GUI or add the PE plugin under OpenOffice Start Menu Program this will satisfy the 2nd point which allow users to get they work fast and easy.
4. Get a free ads for the program in the PE Forums also in the software website as the first program of its kind that have PE plugin which will be really new.



The only thing that i wanna is to join the OpenOffice Developer Team and sure i will keep supporting all of these 3 things as any member in the team.

Keep in mind (KIM) as the Greek philosopher Aristo said "One of the most successful secrets in the world is doing something that others don't".

That is all. Hope to be useful to you.
I will be waiting for your reply (in both cases).

Regards,

Etymologists will find it interesting, the rest of us should just relax
and enjoy the colour and international flavours ;)

The start menu is part of Windows, specifically Windows98 - WindowsXP.
If you have Windows Vista it is the round circle thing in the bottom
left corner of the destop (on the taskbar) with the flying windows icon
on it.

Assuming Vista. Click the circle icon on the bottom-left corner of the
screen. Look for "Programs" in the pop-up list and point to it. Look for
"OpenOffice.org 2.x" in the new flyout list and point the mouse at
that. In the new flyout menu pick "Writer".

 

That setup file is indeed the "setup.exe" i was talking about. Windows
has the option of turning the .exe extention off, so it is not visible.
If it reports that you can only modify files then you have sucessfully
installed. So my instructions above should work. By the way to prove i
am right regarding setup.exe, try this. Right click on "Setup" and
choose properties from the popup list. Somewhere in the dialogue box
that opens you should be able to find "setup.exe".

I respectfully recommend you look to getting some computer tuition, it
seems you have just enough knowledge to get yourself into trouble at
this stage :)

Mike, 
unformatted text makes a difference.<<<<

Yep, it works. I've used it 3 or 4 times and it always seems to place the
text where its supposed to be. Problem apparently solved. Thanks for your
help.
