#uOffice : https://github.com/seanpm2001/uOffice

uOffice (ultimate Office) is an #opensource #office #suite. It was originally my first piece of proprietary software, which quickly went open source (it was never released as closed source luckily) it is an office suite that focuses on high #customization, high #compatibility (compatibility with as many formats and systems as possible) high speeds, and #skeuomorphic design.

It supports an #experimental office format known as #UDOC which supports documents up to 16 exbibytes (2^60 bytes) in size. This was made to address my problems with the 512 megabyte limit in the #ODT format, and to scale the technology towards the far future.

The software is #128bit, but can run on #64bit machines.

It is written in #Python. It was originally written in #Java and #VBScript where legacy use still remains. It is a highly #incomplete project.
