No Libra-write and Callibus in LXDE-menu

LXde it might be but it looks ok, I need a word processor that appears in the menu.

I take it you installed from the Dual Cd which contains little other than an operating system and a desktop (LXDE).
So setup your repositories and install your favourite word processor.

Could you please next time use at least use a meaningful subject related to the content of your post / your question?
You want a word processor? There's libreoffice, abiword and others, all of them have menu entries.

I'm sorry if I left out the whole subject of my post. It's here, I've installed practically everything using the MCC utility but Libra-write and Callibus doesn't appear on the menu

Did you (as Ken-Bergen wrote) setup the repositories? Scribus is in the repositories, that I know for sure.

[dwhite]

Yep full set of sources

Ah, I thought you meant "scribus". Don't know "Callibus" (except from a famous latin quote by Cicero!)...

Maybe you mean libreoffice-writer and calligra?

We need a more heuristic approach in the search field...

Yes, I could well do. Thing is when I opened the menu to all not just packages not those just with a GUI, I was thinking I must be missing a library file, well I was right, all the packages I installed yesterday now appear on the menu. Now I've got many word processing packages, office things.


Now I'm really done, fire up anti-orphan software and that's it. Wasn't there a anti-orphan, cookie clearer outer utility prog a few years ago? Can't remember it's name.
Does anyone know of a graphical tool that edits the file attributes kind of like touch? sets them to whatever you like. I could make touch work in DR dos 20 years ago but not now.

Please open up another thread for different problems. Golden rule: only one problem per thread.

Otherwise, would you mind to describe what such anti-orphan / cookie clearer outer utility software should do or what you want to achieve with that?

FWIW, touch is a tool to create files, not to change unix file permissions (attributes). chmod would be what you want.
