[REQUEST] Google Docs native client
 

I would like a program that works just like (or very similar to) the Google Docs official webclient, but that runs nativelly instead of being a webpage rendered in the browser.

Another week another "I want" thread from TT.

I want a solid gold willy that shoots lazer beams since we are asking for stuff.

Why bother with writing a client when you can access google docs and edit/create etc files perfectly well from within the browser. I do it quite frequently.

Or store the docs in Google Docs and then edit them in freoffice and re-upload them.

microB is too slow and awkward for dealing with document editing in heavy sites like Google Docs

Editing files offline isn't the same thing as doing it online and seeing all the changes other people make live etc

What about something like this

If you want any of the apps you keep on requesting, why not learn how to code?

Pretty sure that K-Office has a plugin for Google Docs. Whether it works, is another issue. Is that native enough for you?

It seems to only work offline, doesn't edit the documents live...

Re: [REQUEST] Google Docs native client
 

In order to edit documents "live" as you put it you would need a client that is constantly polling and pushing changes to the document. Most clients don't work that way, changes are made offline in a local mode and then pushed to the server when a save is made.

Or at least thats the way most clients I use/used work.

Perhaps a solution would be a lightweight browser that has everything necessary to access Google Docs (javascript, HTML5 etc) and nothing that is not needed (flash, swirly zoom etc)?
