Fw: [Bug 1128204] retext crashes with core dump

by Dave Howorth

Hmm, I just got this message from Atri, who I've seen looks at this list. I haven't migrated my bugzilla account because I don't want to continue to use the old account name. I just tried to respond and it wants details I cannot supply (I don't know what username/password are - I've never needed them - my browser supposedly knows them but apparently can't reproduce whatever information is required to respond to the 'migration portal') But more fundamentally, I don't use TW. I use Leap and I'm still on 15.0.

Simple html editor?

by Carlos E. R.

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I have not done this in ages, so is there a simple html editor (WYSIWYG)? I think I used one long ago, blue something perhaps. My start menu suggests seamonkey composer, that's heavy. I just need descriptive text and clickable links. I know I can do this in plain text, but I wonder at something WYSIWYG. Similar to composer, but simpler/smaller. - -- Cheers Carlos E. R.

If you upgrade Firefox 68esr to 78esr - urlbar works like windows but doesn't fill select-buffer, can't downgrade

by David C. Rankin

All, A couple of notes if you are updating from Firefox 68esr to 78esr. (1) the urlbar will select the entire url on single-click (like windows), but the X "select-buffer" (that you can middle-mouse paste) is not filled. Further, mozilla removed: browser.urlbar.clickSelectsAll browser.urlbar.doubleClickSelectsAll So you cannot restore the normal Linux behavior. Links to bugs, discussions, etc.. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1285299 (the most frustrating part of this is you now have to try to triple-click which cancels the selection, then on double-click selects the *word* at the insertion point and then tries expand the selection to the paragraph -- as Gtk widgets go... which often fails depending on the triple-click timing) Note: this is still not a settled issue -- what to do about it is still under consideration, but falls under the category of -- if it wasn't broke to begin with -- don't fix it. The problem being that Linux doesn't select on single-click to prevent changing the select-buffer you have stored if you happen to click in the urlbar. The obvious non-Linux programmers though they would accommodate this by allowing the single-click without changing the select-buffer, but the result was to force an awkward triple-click if you do want to select the URL (which you do about 50% of the time) Progress... (2) your profile will be modified so you cannot downgrade back to 68esr. (this is frustrating, but you can force a downgrade by passing --allow-downgrade on the command line) https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/dedicated-profiles-firefox-installation (neither openSUSE or Wolfgang don't have a dog in this fight -- this is all mozilla) Most of you have probably already made the upgrade and have seen the behavior. -- David C.

Special file copy need

by Carlos E. R.

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, I have to copy some files from Linux to external media formatted as exfat. Some names have a colon, like: "chapter: 1" Several programs baulk saying "can not create file, no such file or directory". Is there some file browser that will "sanitize" names on the fly? "chapter_ 1" I can use krusader which will let me change the name of the destination file before starting, if I copy one by one. Maybe with krename... - -- Cheers Carlos E. R.

make libreoffice toolbar icon size smaller

by Istvan Gabor

Hello: My question applies to LibreOffice 6.2.7.1 in openSUSE Leap 15.1. I have set toolbar icon size to small in Tools -> Options -> View -> Toolbar Icon size. Still I find the icons too big, I would like to have even smaller icons. How can I? The icon style is the default Automatic (Tango).

libreoffice, disable recent document list in start center

by Istvan Gabor

Hello: This applies to libreoffice 6.2.7.1 in openSUSE Leap 15.1. When I start libreoffice, a main window opens: start center (?). From the left side one can open files and start specific libreoffice programs (writer, calc, impress etc.). The right side shows the list of recent documents. I don't want recent documents list to be shown there. I don't want disable recent documents completely, they should still be listed in File/Recent Documents menu, I just don't want them to be listed in the program (start center) main window. I could find (by google search) how to disable recent documents completely (by changing picklistsize to 0) or disable thumbnails, but this is not what I want. I don't want even the names of recent documents listed there. Is it possible? How?
