Interesting. On KDE 4.1.1 on my Kubuntu system, if I rename file.odt to file and click it, nothing happens. If I rename it to file.odt, OOo opens. In any case, that is a KDE feature, not a Linux feature. KDE runs on Windows natively, so any KDE advantage is not a Linux advantage. -- Dotan Cohen http://bido.com http://what-is-what.com Please CC me if you want to be sure that I read your message.
