This is really close to what I've been wanting to build for a while. A sort of excel for programmers with the added ability to write real lua or python code in each cell instead of "formulas".
BTW, I'm suprised this is written in Qt. Looks very modern Windows, in a good way of course :^)
- wruza 4y ago"formulas" Excel formulas are worst abominations of semi-programming. My coworker took advanced excel courses and I sometimes just can’t help her with these monstrosities because everything around them sucks if it’s something more than a simple max-3-term expression. If it was just python or lua, I’d cast few spells and she’d understand and use them much more easily.
- evanem 4y agoYou and I think alike because that was my initial thought. The practical considerations make it tricky. I may still do it, but I first plan to embed Python to allow users to implement their own commands.
- sundarurfriend 4y agoI've been meaning to check out sc-im ("Spreadsheet Calculator Improvised" https://github.com/andmarti1424/sc-im https://github.com/andmarti1424/sc-im) for a while now. Among its listed features: > GNUPlot interaction. > Scripting support with LUA. Also with triggers and c dynamic linked modules. > Implement external functions in the language you prefer and use them in SC-IM. Does anyone here have experience using it? Is it stable and reliable, and does it handle large files well?
