I fear you didn't get my point:
I'm talking about /empty/ files with a length of zero bytes. In Microsoft
Windows the user is given the opportunity, to right-click in any directory and
choose "Create new ... >> New OpenOffice.org-Writer Document".
On Ubuntu Linux (gnome / metacity), I don't have the opportunity to do this
because there are no such options in the context menu. So the only way to create
a new OO File is to choose "Create new ... >> Empty File" and rename it to
something like "My New Document.odt".
When I open this document, OO won't recognize it because of missing headers. At
this point it should check the file size and if its greater than 0 bytes the
well-known "Character Encoding"-Dialog is shown.
Otherwise - in case the file is empty - OO should just act as if a new Document
has been created via the built-in "New Document"-Button and let the user work
with this one.
Sorry for my poor English skills but I hope you get the point. :-)
