You don't have a donations link anymore.. I guess since it only added up to like $2000 over many years? And then I am also guessing that sometimes people might donate $100 and then kind of expect you to code a new feature for them? Anyway, it's your business but I just wanted to encourage you to research that stuff again. Patreon, and a bunch of startups and other projects (I think there is something in GitHub and maybe even one or more cryptocurrency ones) could possibly change the donations situation somewhat. Possibly. But thank you for making it free and coming in here. Personally I find it inspiring to see such an interesting and useful project made by an individual. By the way, I see the scripting is in a language you created called Lobster http://strlen.com/lobster/ http://strlen.com/lobster/ How do you use a script in TreeSheets? Is that documented somewhere?

Yes, 2K over 10 years, for 15$ a month. Not worth keeping that going, given the expectations.. $100 for a feature does not make sense for me. I am on GitHub Sponsors (https://github.com/aardappel https://github.com/aardappel) but really only use that if you feel very strongly about it, since it is never going to compete with my day job. Getting people on patreon etc also requires a lot of "marketing" I don't have time for. There's not a ton of examples of the scripting functionality yet, but here's one: https://github.com/aardappel/treesheets/blob/master/TS/scripts/Export%20JSON.lobster https://github.com/aardappel/treesheets/blob/master/TS/scrip... and the reference (view file locally, sorry): https://github.com/aardappel/treesheets/blob/master/TS/docs/script_reference.html https://github.com/aardappel/treesheets/blob/master/TS/docs/... Beyond that you'd need to check out the language site to learn more on how to use it :)
