Hi

Another spreadsheet application I looked at recently is a simple one called "Tables" (http://www.x-tables.eu/), but decided to wait till Apple's "Numbers" came out.

Personally I like tables views (rows/columns) because they are an efficient way to view lots of information quickly and still find it annoying Rev's built-in tables aren't very flexible.

Found Wingz at: http://www.ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/apps/financial/spreadsheet/

Readme for Wingz says it supports:
Linux, Windows95/98/NT, Solaris, AIX, SunOS, HPUX, IRIX, Mac

Seems to be available only as linux binary & unfortunately no source code :(

I am keen to check out "Wingz" & "Numbers" and their respective approaches to working with financials. Unfortunately, I've still "out bush" with my limited wireless broadband & Macbook (which only has mac & windows). Didn't have time to add a linux partition :(

So I will try again when I get back to civilization (miss my nice warm studio).

Never been a big expert on spreadsheet applications but my knowledge is growing every day, thanks everyone.

regards
alex

One odd anomaly with Numbers, though:  no macro/scripting language?
Strange omission....

I apologize to everyone about this off topic issue. WingZ and HyperCard were so VASTLY important to me and my research - still are - but I see the EOL fast approaching - unless someone can get WingZ 3.0 going on a Mac and I can convert over all my HC work. WingZ could be scripted almost as easily as HyperCard.

I'd say the general user public was not interested in such flexibility and power. Programmers would be though. I located some links to the program:

A good article on and about the program, etc.
