Oh! Top is a program that shows you process activity in a terminal window. Simply open a term and enter top on the commandline. Make certain that you have an active OOo session. With activity it should show up near the top of the active area and you should be able to copy to the end of the soffice.bin line and paste it into a message to users. I have a feeling that all is okay but you are misreading the data you are quoting. I regularly open the user_guide.sxw to update it and in 1.1.x it gives the results I posted and the file is over 4Mb. -- Documentation Co-Lead PLEASE - keep list traffic on the list.
