Hands on Open Source provides a practical introduction to some of the best open-source applications available. The book aims to help users get started with open-source software with a minimum effort and without trawling the Web for help and reading sometimes lacking documentation. Easy-to-follow projects will help users to discover the flexibility and amazing features of some of the best open-source applications available, including GanttProject, Lucane, Grisbi, Kaboodle, VLC Player, OmegaT and OpenOffice.org. The book shows how to create a radio recorder, a database application, interactive text documents, and a custom Live CD Linux. Users will also learn how to fight spam, stream music, manage personal finances, and play open-source games. A considerable part of the book is dedicated to OpenOffice.org, an open-source office suite. The OpenOffice.org-related projects guide users through creating a mapping application, interactive Writer forms, web-enabled currency calculator, and much more. Hands on Open Source is also the first printed book on the market that covers OpenOffice.org 2.0. The book covers Windows, Linux, and Mac OS X platforms. Hands on Open Source is available for purchase at http://www.lulu.com/content/132041, in both printed and electronic editions.
