Writers Tools Description

All-around tool designed to help OpenOffice.org users perform a wide range of tasks Writer's Tools is an all-around tool designed to help OpenOffice.org users perform a wide range of tasks. Writer's Tools will be a precious help when you will be confronted with operations like: back up documents, look up and translate words and phrases, manage text snippets, and keep tabs on document statistics. Here are some key features of "Writers Tools": · Lookup Tool allows you to look up the currently selected word in several online references, including Cambridge Dictionaries, WordNet, and Google Define. · Google Translate allows users to quickly translate selected text fragments between different languages using the Google Translate service. · Show on the Map tool allows you to select a street name, a city, or a post code and map it using Google Maps. · Email Backup can be used to quickly send a backup copy of the currently opened document to a specified email address. · Multi-format Backup macro saves the currently opened Writer document in the Word, RTF, and TXT formats. The backup files are stored in a separate folder with a date stamp. On Linux, the macro also archives the resulting folder using the tar utility. On Windows, there is an option to use the 7-zip compression tool. · Remote Backup allows you to quickly save a backup copy of the current document on a FTP server. · Wikify Word tool links the selected word in the current document to a Writer document, which is created on the fly. For example, if the word "Monkey" is selected, the macro automatically links it to the created Monkey.odt document. · Start/Stop Timer tool can be used to keep tabs on the time spent on the currently opened document and save the time data (the document name, used time, and date) in the accompanying WriterDB database. · Word Hunt Game is a simple game, where you have to guess the word randomly picked by Writer. · Q and A Game is another simple game, which can help you to test you knowledge and memorize stuff. · Word of the Day tool picks and displays a random word and its definition from the accompanying WriterDB database. As a writer, you may often come across a new word or an interesting expression. The WriterDB database allows you to store your language findings in one place, while the Word of the Day tool helps you to keep them active in your memory. · Add to Basket tool is designed to quickly add text snippets, links, and notes to the supplied database. You can also categorize and tag the added entries. · Tasks tool is a no-frills to-do manager that allows you to quickly add, view, and purge tasks. · Writer Templates is a separate extension that contains an article and a book template. · miniInvoices is a customizable invoicing solution for writers. miniInvoices is built with OpenOffice.org Base and relies on the Sun Report Builder extension. The solution features support for multiple currencies and basic reporting capabilities. The latter allows the user to generate print-ready invoices and earning reports. miniInvoices is available as a separate download. Requirements: · OpenOffice What's New in This Release: · WordNet link in Lookup Tool fixed. · Incorrect browser path error message added. · Preferences directory name fixed. · Fix single quotes escaping in the Add to Notebook tool. · Minor cosmetic changes in WriterDB.
