thanks Benson. Tried just it but that is way too labor intensive and slow for a non Linux guy like me. Plus the xterm directories arent the same as File Manager so its hard to keep track of locations.
I'll just keep saving the docs as text and opening them with Note. (unless a GUI shows up)
thanks
But glad the GUI is working for you.

I see it as a tool.
It is IMO still easier to just save (and manage) a doc file as a txt file, but as a tool, it will work fine for those times I receive a doc file on the road.
For instance, there is no find or other editor functions within.

Only weirdness is that on my units it will only open a local file, not one across a shared network.
