Tonight, when I get home, I'll give this a try. On the heals of my last post, I should also mention that I failed to find a pre-built package for version 3 so I used version 2. I downloaded this from the FreeBSD ftp server from packages-stable. Andy -- A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text. Q: Why is it such a bad thing? A: Top-posting.

Probably not what you want to do. The other is to install the appropriate en_GB OpenOffice.org I18N langpack. O_o.org out of the box only has built in for en_US, but there are langpacks available for many others. A quick perfunctory perusal of the ports tree and I didn't see these.
