I already love OpenOffice for all the typical reasons (functionality, freedom, etc.), but it's always been a little slow to load. It might take 15 seconds or so to initially open writer or calc...once they're open, everything is fine...it's just that load time that's a little annoying.

I found a really nice script that backs up all my MySql databases on a rotation, and generally provides insurance against database crashes and the like. I followed the instructions given, popping my copy of the script into /etc/cron.daily, and double-checking the permissions. The only change I had to make to get the script to run properly was to set #!/bin/sh at the beginning of the file...after that, I could run it *manually* all I wanted. Neato.

I'm trying to use email (the Mailhandler module) to post to news items to this (Drupal) blog. So far, I've been able to get a post to show up, but now it can't be edited (or removed), and it's format is a little odd on the page.

Does this one do the same thing?
