[10:16] maybe its because im just starting out for first time, so need to learn first. scribus and LO and OO is too much to get in at once. gotta go the one step at a time route [10:17] didnt ever think id use any office stuffs [10:23] always something new to learn :) and get frustrated with [10:23] hahaha [10:30] Kilos: there must be very very few differences between OO and LO [10:30] no point in wasting your bandwidth on downloading OO [10:30] i have it in maverick inetpro [10:31] i still love the maverick [10:31] ahh, that's old man [10:31] ya ma me too [10:31] LO just got better [10:31] not more difficult [10:34] LO 4 is super fast too [10:38] hmm... bit of rain killed my tower [10:38] Kilos: 21/10 12:34:03 LO 4 is super fast too [10:38] Kilos: did you see that ^?

[11:13] write a book [11:17] they should make things simple, like with a next page button [11:18] too involved with buttons and bullets and snaakse stuff [11:27] like to add a page its insert manual break. why not add a page [11:27] grrr [11:28] first you write the book... and later you worry about formatting ;) [11:31] lol [11:34] i go eat pap and stew with chilli sauce on top [11:51] good afternoon [11:51] Maaz: coffee on [11:51] * Maaz puts the kettle on [11:55] Coffee's ready for charl_!

[12:08] write it where inetpro ? [12:09] im doing it with gedit atm [12:09] hi inetpro [12:09] hi liamT [12:09] then copy paste [12:09] hi liamT [12:09] Kilos: just write your words and sentences as they come in one long page [12:09] oh my [12:09] hey chaps [12:10] that could maybe make things easier ya [12:10] ty guys [12:10] s/word and sentences/words, sentences and paragraphs/ [12:10] like my blog of old inetpro ? [12:10] Kilos: exactly [12:10] nou reen dit lekker [12:10] danke [12:11] but Kilos, if you think about adding too many images then you may want to reconsider using something like scribe [12:12] no i only want an image on the cover [12:12] still gotta find how to make a cover [12:12] start with just the text and worry about image later [12:12] will do ty [12:12] yo zerlgi [12:13] yo Kilos [12:13] i still see formatting as wiping a win drive [12:23] install focuswriter uncle Kilos ... it is made for people wanting to write books without distraction... [12:24] hmm... more to learn [12:33] eeek [12:34] full screen so no launcher app switcher in view [12:36] thats frighening [12:36] frightening [12:36] [alt + tab] [12:38] mouse up and menu appears [12:38] :p [12:38] whew [12:39] alt+tab dont work [12:40] but that mouse up helps so i can close it [12:41] or must you do the alt+tab inside the brackets [12:42] hehe [12:47] alt tab should work if there is another application open ;) [12:48] didnt. i got pidgin xchat and LO open [12:48] that is odd then [12:49] i dont think ive ever managed to get it to work here [12:49] not serious im getting LO working slowly [12:51] cool [12:51] Kilos: what do you mean with "alt+tab dont work"? [12:53] i run that focus thing and got white screen to type in but only when i found moving mouse up opened the top panel toolbar thing alt tab didnt go to other apps [12:53] dont work was written in plain english [12:53] hehe [12:54] page just stayed white [12:55] maybe in its settings i can make it not use full screen , will check that out [12:56] there thats better [12:56] Kilos: hold down the alt key and press tab multiple times [12:57] Kilos: you never use that? [12:57] alt tab brought up a tiny window shownig pidgin and a red X but disappeared before i could do anything [12:58] focus works fine now the full screen is unticked in settings [12:59] full page but still see launcher and top panel [12:59] the point of it is to focus only on writing [13:00] no man [13:00] writing requires thinking and thats makes headaches [13:00] so good to think its bursts [13:17] uncle Kilos fails at focuswriter :p [13:17] nope man it works now [13:18] * nlsthzn will be using it in November for the NaNoWriMo [13:18] btw i watched a program on the idiot bot last night about steve jobs [13:19] interesting [13:38] the idiot bot, is that the tv?

[14:17] hope my mealies can be spared from the forecasted hail [14:18] never mind if it hails they grow agan and the extra nitrogen makes them even better [14:19] hail is magic water unless it knocks peaches off the trees [14:19] eish man! [14:20] will have to wait and see [14:21] yeah we cant control the weather [14:21] you can also quickly insure your mealies with centraoes [14:21] hehe [14:22] then after hail they pay and mealies grow again anyway [14:22] so pays double [14:27] ai!
