Having graphical software locally and sharing the files to it, will be a lot quicker than an X session (VNC might be tolerable from India but that depends on the documents, and it isn't elegant). Just "scp" any files you need to hack on back to the local PC, work on them, and "scp" them back. Alternatively check out if any of the LiveCDs have sshfs, but probably still wiser to copy the file locally, in case you discover the application does more saving to disk than you expected. DSL has sshfs, but as you said no OO, although I've not used DSL. -- The Mailing List for the Devon & Cornwall LUG http://mailman.dclug.org.uk/listinfo/list FAQ: http://www.dcglug.org.uk/linux_adm/list-faq.html
