oo2 extension

Juanito:
a first attempt at an openoffice2 extension is posted.

Although many apps were needed to compile oo2, in an hour or so of playing with it I have only found it requires expat2.tcel, fontconfig.tcel and libxml2.tcel

oo2 might require gtk+-2.tcel and its dependencies, libIDL.tcel, libxslt.tcel and perl_archive_zip.tce and its dependencies for more "exotic" functionality.

For the moment I left in the various language files, dictionaries, help, etc on the basis that if an extension is 80MB, it might was well be 100MB...

Once oo2.tcel works for some users, I'll make a oo2.tczl

Note that if you are not using a permanent /usr/local, you'll need a lot of ram for oo2

Hi Juanito

Haven't tested this extension yet but as I recall, Open Office past a particular version requires Java JRE for certain document conversions.  I ran into this once when I couldn't convert a document and then worked out it was Java that was the missing dependency.

Juanito:
Ah - I compiled oo2 with the --without-java switch...

Juanito:
tczl extension posted

jpeters:
It would be nice to have some light weight components, like gnumeric. I looked at the DSL copy, but there were quite a few libs missing (I gave up at libgcrypt).
