Maybe it did. I actually couldn't find the OS requirements, though I admit to not looking very hard. Sorry if I misled.
We can come by between classes. Usually I use that time to copy over my class notes with a system of different colored pens. But it's been pointed out to me that that's, you know...insane.

I can run NeoOfficeJ under 10.3 -- OpenOffice didn't work for me, even with X11 installed. It takes a damn long time to open, but seems largely stable once it's open....

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
OS X application install question -- most of what I've wanted to install has given me an app and told me to drag it into the application folder.
Now that I've found said folder, easy. But I've expanded the FFView volume, and it's a whole folderful of stuff, with subfolders. I mean, do I drag the volume into the app folder? Do I take the contents of the volume, put them in a normal folder ... what?
Is there any reason, usually, to put apps anywhere other than the app folder? They can run from anywhere, or at least I'm assuming so, since I've run FFView from the volume that's on my desktop.
Also -- the backend stuff is cool. I was poking around the utilities folder and, yay, Unix!

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

You can do anything you want with them, including ignore them. I would tend not to put them in the Applications folder, because I don't want it to get too cluttered.

The only thing to avoid doing is to take apps came preinstalled in the Applications folder, (or apps that installed themselves in the Application folder), and move them out of the Applications folder. They'll still work, but automatic software updates will fail later on.

Where do you put your apps, Tom?

I put my apps in the Application folder. I just don't put anything else there. If I used FFview, I would put the app in the Applications folder, and throw the rest away.

The rest of the stuff looks like scripts and extras (and a bunch of text files). That's what I'm wondering about.

ita, I just made a folder called "FFView" in my Applications folder, and dragged all the stuff into it. I doubt that the extra stuff is necessary, but I just left it there.
I put all my applications in the Applications folder, and just made an alias for the dock for things I run most often.

Hmmph. FFView doesn't like me very much. Shouldn't there be a way I can double click on a cbz and have it come up automatically? And it starts with the last page (and then continues to the first), or at least it has these first three issues.

FFView isn't big with the double-clicking on the cbz file to open it; that only seems to work when I haven't opened the application yet. Otherwise, I have to use the File menu (or the keyboard shortcut) to open a cbz.
