Hmm; well, that seems to decide things …
I’ll confess, here, that getting the quizzes cancelled is a pain, coming when it has; – I’ll confess that I am thinking of seeing if I can explore Ebay, to see id I can sell prepared quizzes – and, just as importantly, the spreadsheet file that has been the backbone and foundation of them – online.
It’s also bad because today saw the release of the open source office suite, NeoOffice 3.0; - something I’ve looking forward, for a while.
At least a week, certainly!
I know I’ve been tinkering with version 3 of OpenOffice.org, but I’ll confess I’ve found it still a touch clunky in comparison with NeoOffice; - even though NeoOffice is, ultimately, based on OpenOffice code.
Blowed if I know how they do it, you’d have to ask someone a touch more familiar with coding than me.
Mind you, that is a benefit, in one sense. It means that NeoOffice has finally managed to at least catch up with the ⌥ (alt) + the various cursor keys, and the backspace (⇤) key, to navigate entire words. Handy, from where I’m sitting. It means I can navigate a document a lot more easily. About the only minor flaw is that neither suite allows the use of the combination of Shift + Alt + the left cursor key, or backspace, to select words, within a given line; – something I’m assuming will be available in the next update.
Which will probably be a while, given I only downloaded the disk image, today …

I love it when people comment. But, having had anonymous comments I feel may be libellous, actionable or just plain offensive, over the years?
I’d appreciate you* leaving your name — with a link to your website or social-media profile†, for preference — before you post a comment.
Should you choose to use a pseudonym/name, I’d appreciate it if that name were to be polite and inoffensive. I’d rather you kept it clean, and relatively adult. Comments left with a pseudonym will be posted at my discretion: I really prefer a link.
Contentious, actionable or abusive posts left anonymously will not be posted. Nor will comments using offensive pseudonyms or language, or that are abusive of other commenters.
If you can also leave you comments on today’s Teaser Video, that would be good.
Thank you.
* I know many value their online privacy. I respect that. But hope you respect my wish to see who’s commenting on my blog: and my wish for you to introduce your self to me, and to your fellow commentors.
