Does OpenOffice 3.3.0 still have the command "oowriter"?

rated 0 times [ 2] [ 0] / answers: 1 / hits: 475 / 3 Years ago, thu, may 27, 2021, 4:50:27

My Ubuntu is 10.10 with some default version of OpenOffice. In order to install some plugin, I have uninstalled the Openoffice and installed a new version 3.3.0 by downloading it from its official website, following this instruction.

But in the new OpenOffice, I find that a command I used quite often before called oowriter does not exist anymore. I wonder if 3.3.0 has an equivalent command? Thanks!

I don't have an idea if it has the same command anymore, but if it's in the Applications Menu, then you could go to System->Preferences->Main Menu. There select the application you want to know the name of and click Properties. The command to execute that application shows up there.

This is a screenshot where I found the command to execute LibreOffice. The procedure is very similar to finding OpenOffice Writer's command, if you were wondering why the screenshot if it's not OpenOffice Writer.
