Just for the record, what I do when I want to start LibreOffice from the command line is I type: libr to which the bash prompt replies: libreoffice then I hit enter.  From there you can get to calc or write or ... However, if you really don't want that extra step of choosing, you can do what I just did and type man libreoffice or (man localc, or probably even man -k libreoffice) and find that there are command line names for each of the things.  And, having seen the man page, I now realize that its not 'local' c, its 'lo' calc.  For LibreOffice calc (so the others are lobase, lodraw, loimpress, etc). Too much to remember, I'll stick with libr thank you very much!  (This all assumes you've got tab completion enabled, and if you DON'T you should seriously consider it, unless you really love typing! ;-) On 8/28/24 05:54, Michael via PLUG-discuss wrote: > the ol' microsoft fix fixed it.
