Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 61740
Trying to open a new non-existing file from the commandline gives an error message
Last modified: 2006-02-08 10:55:00 UTC
This has been reported before as issue 6077 for version 1.02 of openoffice. I do not know if that also carries it over to 2.0 automatically, but the bug/missing feature is still there. If this is a superfluous double report, please feel free to close it again. Description: When trying to open a new, non-existing document from the commandline like so: # oowriter new_document.odt I get the following errormessage: "/home/zelle/new_document.odt does not exist" instead of a new, empty text document with the filename preset to "new_document.odt", as I would have expected. This feature is so common in any unix program that I think it should be present in OO as well. The error message can just be replaced with the expected functionality of opening a new document. All programs of the OO suite seem have this problem.
