Description Nick Levinson 2020-09-23 23:33:08 UTC
Description:
Misphrased at one point.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Within LO (not at a website), open Help.
2. In the Index, go to Defaults, then Documents.
3. Find the sentence that says, "You can define a document template for each LibreOffice module."

Actual Results:
"You can define a document template for each LibreOffice module."

Expected Results:
"You can define a document template for each LibreOffice application."


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No



Additional Info:
I think you mean Writer, Calc, and so on. If so, I don't think you want to say "module". I think you want to say "application".

For modules, see: https://docs.libreoffice.org/

For use of the term "applications", see: https://www.libreoffice.org/discover/libreoffice/

I do not know if the term "module" was misused elsewhere in Help. The string appears too many times to check all of them.

Nope, Module is correct. 

LibreOffice (and OpenOffice.org before) is monolithic. The full office application is composed of functional office modules--Writer (sw), Calc (sc), Draw/Impress (sd), StarMath Formula editor (sm), Base (reportdesign/dbaccess), Chart (chart2).

With exception of Chart, each has a configuration and module launcher (GUI or command line) that exercises the core components of LibreOffice--but it is all interconnected.
