pyoooqs is a software tool that is being reviewed here, with its name standing for Python OpenOffice.org Quickstarter. Its mission is to function as an OpenOffice.org Quickstarter, as accurately described by its name. It was developed and designed to work mainly on the GNOME Desktop and presents a GNOME Panel Applet feature, providing users with ease of access.
Features & Functions:
One of the main things to consider while evaluating pyoooqs is that, at the moment of writing, it does not provide international support. A set of requirements are needed for the software to function correctly, such as a minimum GTK+ version of 2.6.x, python, pygtk, gnome-python, and gnome-python-extras.
Testing & Running it:
It is possible to evaluate pyoooqs without having to install it. Users can navigate to the src/ directory, generate a pyoooqs_globals.py file, and run it by typing ./pyoooqs.py --tray. Once executed, users can test its functionalities and evaluate its effectiveness.
Installation & Operation:
In case users wish to go through the installation process, they need to follow some simple steps. Using the canonical method, they must extract the tar.bz2 file and navigate to the pyoooqs- directory. Then, by typing ./configure --prefix=/usr (depending on the individual GNOME prefix), followed by make and su -c "make install", users can install the software. Once installed, they can add pyoooqs to the panel as a standard applet or run it by typing "pyoooqs" in the command line.
Updates & Enhancements:
The reviewed version is the first public version of pyoooqs, and the software development team already implemented the primary functionalities, making it stable and reliable to use.
