British English Thesaurus for OpenOffice 3.x
OpenOffice 3.x on Ubuntu doesn’t come with a thesaurus for British English
(en-gb), which is irritating. Google shows lots of recipes for faking a British
thesaurus using the installed thesaurus for US English, which is at best an
approximation, but in any case they don’t work on OO3. A much better solution
is to download the British English Thesaurus OpenOffice
extension from the weekly
whinge
and install it (from any OO application: Tools » Extension manager... » Add
...). Kudos!
