[nicholas ferguson]
To show added value from LibreOffice.  There are several restrictions, which
include
1.  Cannot write to windows registry.  So this eliminates this example
2.  Cannot make a formal installation of LibreOffice.  Again, this
eliminates this example.
3.  I can do a dev install of LibreOfffice, via cygwin. 

code can always include 
putenv("UNO_PATH=....path to instdir/program");

Is there an example that doesn't require writing to registry or a formal
installation of a libreoffice release?
