I'm posting this to the list on behalf of Jack, because his posts don't mak=
e=20
it to the list for some reason:
=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=
=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D
You didn't see it in the list because it hasn't shown up there yet, =20
despite three tries to post.....
What I mean is that if I type "oocalc somefile" in a term (it doesn't =20
seem to matter xterm, konsole, ...) I almost immediately get the next =20
shell prompt, even before the oocalc (or oodraw or oowrite) window is =20
fully displayed and ready to work. It does not smell to me like =20
anything to do with the terminal program, or even the shell, although =20
there may well be an environment variable that OO is checking. =20
oowriter --help (and any variation I have tried) seems to ignore the =20
request for help. If you look at the ooffice help on command line =20
parameters, there is a note about gentoo having a custom version - but =20
I haven't been able to find anything at the gentoo site either. I have =20
not yet tried launching from a script in case that behaves any =20
differently.
Note that since the shell has given the next prompt - the terminal will =20
certainly think everything is done, and happily close if the script is =20
finished. The trick will be to explicitly find a way to check that oo =20
has finished.
If you just launch oo from a command line in a terminal, do you get the =20
next shell prompt immediately, or not until you exit oo?

Thanks Jack, this is rather interesting:
On two machines including the amd64 laptop the terminal exits immediately,=
=20
while the OOo is being launched. Both of these have OOo compiled from=20
source. The third machine (an old x86 laptop) has the OOo binary installed=
=2E =20
The binary installation behaves as I thought was the norm, i.e. the termina=
l=20
does not exit, but remains open until I close OOo. So this problem that=20
reported I guess is due to a difference between the two types of OOo, built=
=20
from source or binary.
I looked at the CLI help options by running 'ooffice -help'but I can't see=
=20
anything in there that will change this behaviour on the OOo built from=20
sources.
Any other ideas?
=2D-=20

Mick
