Its also got a print to latex file facility, which is handy for using in

Perhaps oleo, with a curses interface is the answer.

I also tried the CUI (curses-user-interface) spreadsheets but I found
that they required too much memory work (what key does what, etc).  I
found it much easier to just use postgresql with the psql CLI front-end.  

Postgresql comes with any function you can think of execpt perhaps
presentation.  The documentation is excellent and SQL queries
(data-entry and -retreival) are easy; I didn't do SQL looping and
branching.

Umm, what kind of system are you on that gnumeric is too big? I'm on a
366MHz system with 256MB RAM -- even when I had only 96MB RAM, gnumeric
opened in a matter of one or two seconds. I still prefer using it to
OO.o's calc. True, you need to have a bunch of GNOME libraries
installed, but then, there's a lot of apps out there that do.

I've used ApplixOffice's spreadsheet as well, and it's quite fast, if
not as featureful; it's also commercial and non-free. I believe Siag
Office has one, but I don't know how 'big' is big to you. 

You could always export your data to csv or tab-delimited and edit in a
text editor... ;-)

small and similar to Excel seem to be contradictory to me. Excel has so

Re: spreadsheet (excel, WingzPro)

Hi,

  I haven't played with the Linux version yet, but I have used the HP-UX
versions for 5 years.  Wingz is the spreadsheet only, WingzPro includes
the scripting tools.  WingzPro allows you to write entire applications
based on the spreadsheet with a GUI front end.  The scripting language
is extremely powerful and allows you to create very complex front ends
for data base and other applicaitons.

Regards,

Jon.

It's not good for real number crunching. If you want that you will have
to try something else. All Gnome software is considered beta for now,
even though the release is stable, it lacks many features found in more
mature spreadsheets. you may want to look into StarOffice. It is pretty
well done, but a real mamory hog.

I am pretty happy with the spreadsheet that came in a StarOffice 5.1 package,

GNUmeric is arguably one of the best if not the best spreadsheet.

What you should to is 'dpkg --configure -a' then 'apt-get -f install' 
to fix whatever you broke.  If that doesn't work 'apt-get remove gnumeric'
'dpkg --purge gnumeric' 'apt-get install gnumeric'  this should install 
gnumeric and it's dependencies.  This is assuming you have you

Stan,

I'm not a big user of spreadsheets but I have looked at Siag which seems to
be quite effective.  IIRC functionality can be extended through scripting
(as in Excel) although the scripting language is not built in.  I think
Perl is the language (but don't quote me on that :)

Also from what I see on the list here, StarOffice has a spreadsheet as part
of its package but I've no idea how good that is - I would expect that it
would be very good as it is part of a commercial suite but then again ...

If neither of those suit you then there is another office suite around
somewhere called, I think, Andrew.  This also has a spreadsheet.

Good luck !

Ivan.

I've been experimenting with the commercial Wingz product.
They have a shareware version available at sunsite.unc.edu.

/math/oleo-1.6-6.deb is the GNU spreadsheet program.

Well, first I would have looked in math. If you have a packages file, you
can:

grep spreadsheet Packages

Adding a "-B 10" you get the other information about this package that
might be helpful.

There used to be something called "Oleo" under math.
