Hi all, I just convinced a friend who has been experiencing windows problems to switch to linux.
He did this on the condition that he could run his Ms Word Excel etc. (He has a list of windows programs that he must have on his sytem because of his work) I told him about cxoffice and he seemed happy. I got a call that he opened an execel file and it was corrupted. After asking I realized it wasn't corrupted but just a hebrew excel file. I need a transparent way to get this working for him. 1. to set up his debian box with hebrew 2. to get cxoffice to work with hebrew. ideally I would like a .deb that would do the trick but I would settle for a shell script. In my mind what http://www.ivrix.org.il/redhat/ has plus a hebrc.deb. The shell script would just check sources.list that it contains whatever are the correct sources to give me the files I need, then an apt-get install for all the packages, and apt-get hebrc and apt-get setup crossover office with hebrew. 1. Is this doable? 2. how do I translate hebrc from the above site to debian. (system stuff is in different places in debian so I can't just use alien to convert it.) 3. Where is there a clear explaination of how I get cxoffice to work with hebrew 4. Does hebrc in its present form address the debian font keyboard etc. issues? 5. Is there anything I am missing?
