Star Office for Amiga? Maybe. : Comment 14 of 16 | ANN.lu |
Posted by Anthony Long on 19-Jul-2000 22:00 GMT | In reply to Comment 13 (nick): ... and don't forget: the GPled code will be 6.0 (StarOffice is currently at 5.2).
Correct me if I'm wrong (I know you all will...), but AFAIK StarOffice has the best M$ Word importing/exporting of any non-M$ WP. Surely the GPLed code could just be used in part to produce file loaders/savers for other WPs (which would, of course, be GPL as well - the loaders/savers, that is)? |
