Package: openoffice.org
Version: 2.0.4-7
Severity: minor


The oocalc script has a -calc option that only opens a new oocalc
session. In fact, there is an option to soffice itself that
can also be used to *force* OOo to open a document in calc instead of
one of the other components.

For example a data file foo.dat can be opened in oocalc rather than
oowriter by specifying:

    soffice -calc foo.dat

This is a really useful feature.

Unfortunately, the oocalc program itself doesn't work in this way and
the feature is lost. Neither of these work in the desired way:

    oocalc foo.dat
    oocalc -calc foo.dat

With the data file being opened in oowriter instead of in calc.

Perhaps the ooo-wrapper script needs changing to respect this option?

Perhaps an soffice man page is needed to advertise this option?
