Multi-Language Word Processor

[Brian Densmore]

Just installed Mandrake 9.0 last night/this morning complete with
Russian. Openoffice installed Russian also. You need to make sure you
have the fonts, and the OS needs to support it and you'll also need the
keyboard layout for whatever language you want to use. Haven't had a
chance to test it out yet. Have problems with my gentoo box when trying
to open a file saved in Russian.
