i downloaded it last week. it loads slower than soffice 5.2 and seems to
crash on most docs that soffice 5.2 works on.

i must qualify this by saying i only use these things to read the
occasional ms word or excel file someone sends me. abiword seems to
have as much success with the word files than either oo or so.=20

if i was more dependent on these, i would probably spend more time
trying to tweak them to work around the frequent crashes, but this isn't
a priority for me.

You think you know when you learn, are more sure when you can write,
even more when you can teach, but certain when you can program.
