Replacements for the Hancom Suite
« on: August 20, 2004, 08:27:34 am »
Hey all,

I remember ages ago reading a thread about a replacement for the hancom word package that was in beta and supposedly a lot of more advanced. Has anyone heard anything more about that?

Has anyone heard anything about an equivalent or better replacement for the hancom sheet package?

Any ideas if there will be an Ooo implementation for hand helds or even a KOffice implementation for hand helds?

Thanks

They released about 4 betas in total and I think they're now on the final one before a public release.

I had not heard about this.  Who is "they" and what application (suite?) are you referring to?
SL-5500 :: OZ 3.5.2 | Hentges :: OPIE 1.1.7 :: Sandisk 64MB SD (ext2) :: Pretec CF 802.11b

They are Softmaker and have only ported Textmaker to the Zaurus so far.

Well that will be cool when it comes out.

But is there anything in the here and now that's a word processor and spreadsheet that work with OZ 3.3.5 as I recall the hancom apps won't install on this version of OZ.
