Applixware is a free for non-commercial use office suite. It looks rather dated but I like using it as an alternative for OpenOffice, so I wrote this how-to for installing it.

Installing

Get version 6 from http://www.vistasource.com/dl/applixware6-lnx-homeuser.tar.gz

Note: version 6.1 will be available soon.

Decompress it to /opt/applix.

In /usr/lib, link libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3 to libstdc++.so.6:

# cd /usr/lib
# ln -s libstdc++.so.6  libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3

From within /opt/applix, run ./install as root

# ./install

Put this on your /etc/rc.local:

/opt/applix/axdata/axnlmgrd -c /opt/applix/axlocal/axlicensedat -l /tmp/axnlmlog &

Run it with /opt/applix/applix. Enjoy.
