Ok I think I understand. However, OpenOffice is NOT following the python
convention. It places the uno.py file in
the "/usr/lib/ooo3/basic3.1/programs" directory on my system and something
different on windows. I'm guessing, but I bet ubuntu has the file in a
different location. And of course then there is OSx.
So I thought there some be some way to find the File.
