Eric,

The real problem with OO is the character sets in X11. With Leopard,
every time I open a document, it seems to be off in unicode space
somehow, and I get garbage characters.

And maybe you can tell me how to set Calc so that it does not open every
document in full-screen mode? This is really annoying with a cinema display.

And yes, OO opens up after the timeout.

Thanks,
Jim
