DESCRIPTION

OpenOffice.org is a fully featured office suite for the daily use with all features you would normally expect in a office suite.

This script runs OpenOffice with the arguments <args> given on the command line.

There are also some wrapper scripts in /usr/bin which are calling the "normal" openoffice script and run the wanted OpenOffice.org module.

OPTIONS

These arguments are processed by the wrapper itself.
--version
This option displays the version of this OpenOffice.org build.
--widgets-set widgetsset
This option allows to start the application with an other widgets set.
These arguments are passed directly to the real start binary by the wrapper.
filename...
Files to operate on. Opening them is the default behavior, which can be influenced by command line arguments. -p will print the files instead.
-accept=accept-string
Notifies the OpenOffice.org software that upon the creation of "UNO Acceptor Threads", a "UNO Accept String" will be used.
-base
Starts with the database wizard.
-calc
Starts with an empty Calc document.
-display display
This option specifies the X server to contact; see X(7)
-draw
Starts with an empty Draw document.
-global
Starts with an empty Global document.
-headless
Starts in "headless mode", which allows using the application without user interface.

This special mode can be used when the application is controlled by external clients via the API.

-help|-h|-?
Lists the available OOo-native command line parameters to the console.
-impress
Starts with an empty Impress document.
-invisible
Starts in invisible mode.

Neither the start-up logo nor the initial program window will be visible. However, the OpenOffice.org software can be controlled and documents and dialogs opened via the API.

When the OpenOffice.org software has been started with this parameter, it can only be ended using the taskmanager (Windows) or the kill command (UNIX based systems).

It cannot be used in conjunction with -quickstart.

-math
Starts with an empty Math document.
-minimized
Keep the splash screen minimized.
-n filename
Creates a new document using filename as a template.
-nodefault
Starts the application without any window opened for the first time. A window appears if you start the office next time.

It is used together with the option -nologo by quickstarters. Note that the option -quickstart has not been longer supported since OpenOffice.org 2.0.0.

-nolockcheck
Disables the check for remote instances using the installation.
-nologo
Disables the splash screen at program start.
-norestore
Disables restart and file recovery after a system crash. It is possible OOo will try to restore a file it keeps crashing on, if that happens -norestore is the only way to start OOo.
-o filename
Opens filename for editing, even if it is a template.
-p filename...
Prints the given files to the default printer and ends. The splash screen does not appear.

If the file name contains spaces, then it must be enclosed in quotation marks.

-pt printername filename...
Prints the given files to the printer printername and ends. The splash screen does not appear.

If the file name contains spaces, then it must be enclosed in quotation marks.

-show presentation
Starts with the given Impress file and starts the presentation. Enters edit mode after the presentation.
-unaccept=accept-string
Closes an acceptor that was created with -accept option.

Use -unaccept=all to close all open acceptors.

-terminate_after_init
The office terminates after it registers some UNO services. The office doesn't show the intro bitmap during startup.
-view filename
Creates a temporary copy of the given file and opens it read-only.
-web
Starts with an empty HTML document.
-writer
Starts with an empty Writer document.
