Program to open .css file in Ubuntu?
 
G'day, I want to open a css file in Ubuntu Studio, now about six months old, the install.

I have tried document viewer, libre office, open office, caligra words and abiword, with no success, instead there is print about spacings... could someone help me out as my mum urgently needs this document? Thanks.

What about gedit, notepad or some other texteditor?

Novatian 06-25-2013 04:11 AM

Yes I tried notepad and gedit:

.Body_Smaller_Cell {
font-family: Arial;
font-size: 7pt;
}
.Body_Smaller {
font-family: Arial;
font-size: 7pt;

All of them show it this way.

Maybe I'm missing something here, but what do you expect to see in there?
CSS = Cascading Style Sheet; in other words, HTML layout cmds. It wouldn't normally have any data/info AFAIK?

It is meant to come out as a printable form.

Seeing as its html layout, try opening it with a browser

Neither Chrome nor firefox get this done, but I remember at college seeing a means of using notepad to change a css into a document, do you know it?

validator456 06-25-2013 05:01 AM

Printable form, you mean with identations? I use Geany, and you can set the identation any way you want it.

to change a css into a document,
, I would do as below:
  • mv want_to_open_this_css_file want_to_open_this_css_file.rtf
  • Make the changes like changing font_size to suit the example
  • then give it to my mum.

I just tried installing geany, Netbeans and Eclipse, but they won't install after the initial message that it requires installation of untrusted packages.
