Python specific information for Extension creation
OpenOffice.org ships with a python scripting language on it's versions 2.3.4. This Python distribution comes with the uno module which connects the UNO API with the python scripting language. To run this version of Python on Linux you can go to the direct OpenOffice.org PATH. OOo-Python can be run from the command line as well as you might expect with any other distribution of Python.
