Re: directly executable Gnumeric (was USB/CD version)

[Prof J C Nash <nashjc uottawa ca>]

I apparently failed to make clear that my wish is to have an executable 
of Gnumeric (and other Gnome stuff too) that can be run from CD or USB. 
I've remastered Knoppix once (see www.telltable.com), but that is a very 
different situation since one reboots. I'm looking to plug in a USB and 
run Gnumeric on a "foreign" system without installing it. Some Win apps 
and some Linux ones can be run this way, but I'm not familiar with the 
requirements for so doing.

Truthfully, there could be obstacles that render this idea infeasible, 
but clearly it could make it much easier to "show and tell" and also to 
get folk trying good applications.
