Executable name in Linux launcher
In our typical Linux installation we rely on a launcher called /opt/openoffice4/program/soffice which in turns executes /opt/openoffice4/program/soffice.bin The 'soffice.bin' name is not hard-coded, but computed in the former script with sd_binary=`basename $0`.bin As observed on the users list http://markmail.org/message/eihw7r66e2bb2giy this breaks expectations when one is using a symlink (say, openoffice4) to /opt/openoffice4/program/soffice since then $0 would be the symlink's name and not soffice, so the launcher would try to execute openoffice4.bin and this wouldn't work. Is there any reason against having some additional checks in our launcher, or even hardcode soffice.bin as executable name there? This seems Linux (or UNIX-like) specific but I haven't checked on other systems.

OOXML documentation
Hi, I've begun writing up some documentation on the OOXML file format on the wiki: https://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/OOXML The new content is that linked to from the first section, currently limited to a description of the packaging format, extensibility features, and a brief introduction to WordProcessingML. This is just the beginning, and there's a *lot* more to be covered, which will happen over the coming weeks (months?). I've deliberately avoided discussing details of any particular implementation, so that it's a general description that is hopefully of use to anyone writing software to deal with the format. I will however be releasing my own implementation (which converts to/from HTML) once I've completed the port to Linux (which is close to completion). If anyone else who has experience working with the format would like to contribute as well, that would be great. My expertise is limited to the word processing aspects only, as I've never worked with the spreadsheet or presentation formats. -- Dr. Peter M.

Re: [WEBSITE][DOWNLOAD] Newest updates to webpages
On Sun, Jul 13, 2014 at 2:02 AM, Marcus (OOo) marcus.m...@wtnet.de wrote: Hi all, I've finished some more work on the download webpages. Because you can benefit from these changes for your localized website you may want to know how to use it. - Download webpage: 1. All the colored boxes + navigation bar + logo section can be defined to be shown or not. If they should be shown, the text can be localized in msg_prop_l10n_XX.js. For an example see the source code of http://www.openoffice.org/xx/ download/index.html. - Download scripting: 1. Moved all variables and functions into an single global object DL. Now only this object is in the global scope of the browser window and no longer every little variable (best practices in JS scripting). 2. The same for the localization strings in msg_prop_l10n_XX.js (global object l10n). 3. An error text is shown when choosing not suitable select box options (e.g., OS X 32-bit + any language + 4.1.0). If it's not possible to translate the English wording properly into your language, then (more or less) free text can be defined. See the variables l10n.dl_error_custom_1_text until l10n.dl_error_custom_4_text (depends on the exception case) in msg_prop_l10n_XX.js. - Select boxes: 1. The list items can be localized. The current strings are in English and can be found in msg_prop_l10n_XX.js. See the variables l10n.dl_green_box_select_box_os_values, l10n.dl_green_box_select_box_language_values and l10n.dl_green_box_select_box_version_values in msg_prop_l10n_XX.js. 2. Furthermore, in the language select box the list items have a tool tip (native language name + ISO code). BTW: I'm now subscribed to the L10N mailinglist. And as always, if you need more details just ask. :-) Marcus Very cool! a nice fill in template page. :) Taking a look at this again. I have two ideas -- * take this email and make into an instruction page instructions.html or something in /download * it would be helpful to have a new file called localized_download.html or something in /download as well that would contain the slightly edited js references found, for example, in http://www.openoffice.org/de/downloads/index.html with placeholders for the language js file. The second item would be especially helpful to get translation volunteers to help in anticipation of new language releases. They could submit the changed download page, and the translated string js file as issues ahead of time to be committed when the release comes out.
