I'm migrating a bunch of spreadsheets from Debian Lenny/Openoffice to
Debian Wheezy/Libreoffice 3.5.x. This is a dedicated setup used by many
once-a-year users (who aren't chosen for their familiarity with
computers) and, for instance, boots straight into a front end when
switched on and shuts down when you close the front end. All driven by a
startup script which launches the front end and waits for it to close.
This sounds like a horrible mess. As far as I know, you can control the
entire office process through a real program (Java, Python, Java Script)
which starts up the office suite in listening mode, connects to the
listening office, plays games with the same UNO-Api as macros do and
finally takes care of the proper shutdown.
I would train my users instead.
Best of luck. It's for a club and there are 80 or so people who use it.
If you had a well publicised training session you might get 15 or 20
turn up - and they'd have forgotten it all when it came to their turn to
use it up to a year later.
