download the staroffice program from sun.com and put it in /usr/ports/distfiles then get the port from ftp://ftp.hagenhomes.com/pub/so51a.port.tar and untar it wherever u want. run the make file and follow the directions. oh i forgot to mention the file is about 71 megs so a fast connection is needed, mine took 2 whole minutes! its alot nicer than 3.1 and i hope more stable.
