Siag Office - A Free Office Package for Unix

also: Free Linux-Based Spreadsheets

Note that if you remove KDE and Gnome from the current SuSE Linux distro, there is no spreadsheet or Word Processor available - The Siag Office tool sute addresses this problem - allowing you to have a Word Processor or SpreadSheet without installing and running e.g. a sound server.

The sound server problem is what drove me to discover these tools - specificly, the desire to decouple audio processing from the desktop environment package.

Neither Gnome nor KDE will allow the sound server packages to be uninstalled without removing all Gnome or KDE dependant apps and libraries.
