i’ve been spending hours trying to find an OpenOffice ( http://www.openoffice.org/ ) quickstart application for GNOME .. to my dissappointment, i only found the GNOME 1 version( http://ooqs.sourceforge.net/ ) and KDE version ( http://ooqstart.sourceforge.net/ ).. ...
then i got a crazy idea of using alltray ( http://alltray.sourceforge.net ) to run one instance of openoffice in the background … the trick is easy … juz open a new text file using open office .. then hide it using alltray … (yah .. its pretty lame .. at least it’ll stop me from closing the last openoffice instance running .. and had to load all over again ) ...
have fun~
