I never d/l'ed libreoffice.
Have thought to but didn't.
No Internet access on the XP 32 rig since March 2022 when DSL had troubles.
Called AT&T, their tech said go to fiber I did, fiber never worked so cancelled
fiber.
This January got cellphone w/ data and have been on the net ever since.

On XP I still read the files on it.
I have Vernon Buergs LIST program on it and occasionally use the E option to
EDIT text with EDIT.COM .
Then I SaveAs to a different filename.
