vladimirmikulic / visum Goto Github PK

Finding this repository is really a surprise to me, but sadly it cant work on my linux. I try to open with Visum in thunar and try to use Firefox and msedge as default browser, both didn't work. When I use Firefox, there is nothing open, while msedge will download my local file.

I also try to use cli and got a 'x-www-browser not found' error.

Btw, msedge has a new feature that can use office view to open office file instead of download it, but i seems not work on linux.(I disable it while testing visum), maybe this feature can be helpful for this project.

Neither Microsoft nor Google visualizer worked. Made a normal installation and opened some files under my home directory. Looks like they can't access the files.

I'm on Pop OS 20.04 LTS, and Chrome 92.0.4515.131 (Official Build) (64-bit)

Follows 2 prints using Microsoft and 1 with Google. Each of them with the console log.

Installed and then edited the config file, but nothing happens when i try to open a .xlsx file.

I stumbled upon your project while looking for a lightweight .doc viewer (I was not specifically looking for something based on Microsoft Office online, just wanted something lighter than LibreOffice). This looks like a really awesome project, thanks for your work! I really like it. I still have to check if it requires an Internet connection (I guess it does) and what is the CPU use for Microsoft Office online, but I definitely want to have this installed on my computer.

However, I'm facing an issue opening files right now. I installed visum using the install script and associated files are now in /usr/share as they should, but nothing happens when I try to open a file from a GUI file browser with visum. Same from command line: I noticed that /usr/share/visum/scripts/visum.sh is not executable, but if I cd /usr/share/visum and then run it with sh scripts/visum.sh path/to/file.doc, I get this:

/usr/share/visum $ sh scripts/visum.sh /path/to/file.doc
  % Total    % Received % Xferd  Average Speed   Time    Time     Time  Current

Bad remote forwarding specification 'vu8QnGxX90:80:localhost:'

Other than that, I find it a bit weird that install.sh moves everything clone from git to /usr/share/visum, including files that are probably not needed to execute visum. I would expect that only mandatory files for execution would be moved there, while other files (LICENSE.md, install.sh, etc.) would stay in the git folder.

Hi there. it should be a gread helper. I am so tired of the slow LibreOffice.

but after installation, office online shows 404 and google doc says No preview available

am I missing something or it is not working anymore?

Hi

following the steps outlined leads to the following output:

Done! Enjoy Visum :)
gareth@kali:~$

==============================================================

Program will not then run.
"cp: cannot stat" normally relates to paths with spaces or special characters but cannot see how this applies in this case.

I am not a programmer and only have a tenuous grasp of the command line and linux file systems.
