No, it does *not* behave as documented. See the "libreoffice --help" output. "Using without special arguments: Opens the start center, if it is used without any arguments." Other usages such as providing a file argument or using --writer to create an empty Writer document have no effect either, while a window should have been opened. The fact that LibreOffice is already running in the background is just internals. It still needs to behave as documented and in a useful way. With the current status, there is no way to open a LibreOffice window. -- Vincent Lefèvre <vinc...@vinc17.net> - Web: <https://www.vinc17.net/> 100% accessible validated (X)HTML - Blog: <https://www.vinc17.net/blog/> Work: CR INRIA - computer arithmetic / AriC project (LIP, ENS-Lyon)
