LibreOffice Added

Okay I cannot help myself, I am a graphics software junkie so I jumped up into the downloads and wanted to see the new replacement for Openoffice. I ran across a link off a google search and wanted to try terminal for adding new software to my computer. It was fun utilizing terminal as well as LibreOffice

    Think I'll have to try this, as well. What do you think so far?

    It seems to work somewhat better with my vector based applications when I export them back and forth. I like LibreDraw as it has a black and white preview when graphics are made in color. This ensures a better output if you have to print to a laser printer.
