[Discussion] ThinkFree Office: Anyone Know ...

[Thomas Clayton]

Dear POSSI:

Anyone know of, OR used, ThinkFree Office ON OS/2 - eCS?
(I, at the moment, have no intersest in trialing it
  ...  but I thought a number of YOU, might be interested.)

It's a JAVA based tripo of app.s;
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ThinkFree_Office

>From above:
"
ThinkFree Office by Haansoft ThinkFree Co. Ltd.,
"
...
"
is an office suite written in Java that runs on Windows, Linux, and
Macintosh platforms. ThinkFree Office includes a word processor
(Write), a spreadsheet (Calc) and a presentation program (Show).
ThinkFree Office reads and writes to Microsoft Office file formats
(.doc, .xls, and .ppt). ThinkFree Office has a look and feel similar to
Microsoft Word, Excel and PowerPoint, allowing users to switch over
easily.

This is the On-Line version's URL, BTW.

There IS a desktop vn.:
http://product.thinkfree.com/desktop/

It runs on MacOS (various vn.s for various OS vn.s), and seemingly does
so pretty well as ref'd here:

A 'Viewer' app. exists for others to read your doc.s:

'Trial' - and 'Registered' - downloads are available, at:
http://product.thinkfree.com/get/

Lastly, I came across a 'blog' about it:

'nough, for now,
