how aboot freeciv?

and Civilization II , one of my all-time favs...
It works well when run under the latest stock WINE..
Even network multiplayer playability is good between linux and windows.

That would be worth building a wine.dsl for !
Unfortunately, WINE is a pig when it comes to resources...

I would like to have a light version of Powerpoint. Would someone mind trying something like magicpoint? You have to compile and I am not good at that yet. Thanks

I have used DSL for some months, although not contributed much to the forum... But I would also love to see magicpoint as a dsl extension! That would be great!

I would also like to suggest antiword. I actually thought DSL had it, but I can't seem to find it, and I don't like wv so much. With antiword you can view M$-word documents, convert them to .txt or .ps. With ps2pdfwr (which is in DSL) you can easily convert .ps to .pdf, which is great, since you already have xpdf! That way you can produce pdf-files from almost anything with the combo: antiword, ps2pdfwr and a2ps (which is also present). Ted can also print to .ps, and then you can convert to pdf. That way the distro would become more complete, IMO.

Another suggestion is pdftk, which I think is great. (I like pdfs...) With that tool you can split pdf-docs into single-page pdf-files, remove certain pages, put together two separate pdf-docs into one new pdf-document, etc.
