I tried what you suggest, and here is what happened:

swarup at swarup-laptop:~$ oowriter 
The program 'oowriter' is currently not installed.  You can install it
by typing:
sudo apt-get install openoffice.org-writer
bash: oowriter: command not found

So what should I do? I already have OO on my computer-- I do not need to
install it. Why won't Writer open with the command you've given?

ok, but will the error message automatically come in terminal once I've
opened Writer via terminal? Or do I have to request the error message,
once the error comes?

Thanks,
Swarup
