I have been working on a similar idea as an experiment.  In my experimental 
design, when psppire starts, it automatically launches an instance of 
Libreoffice 
(or OpenOffice) if there is not already one running.  Then, all pspp output goes
directly to a Libreoffice window , and can be saved as Libreoffice format.  I
will soon publish a demonstration - to see what people think of the idea.  
However,
I think before it can become useable it will need a bit of work by someone who
knows the Openoffice API.


This idea seems great for those who use LibreOffice / OpenOffice.
Does the instance that will be used Writer or Calc, or would be a configurable 
option?
    
    
     I am willing to test but have really no idea what to test. Also I don have
     the skills to debug PSPP.  If somebody out there has the skills to provide
     a patch I am willing to build a test version and see what happens.
    
Sorry, I have lost the context here.  What was the problem?

The context is that I thought Harry was a developer, but I explained that he 
only handles PSPP build for Windows versions.Many users use Windows, and there 
is a specific problem in the platform, to copy tables in the output window of 
PSPP.
