Hi! I'm pleased to announce that pyExcelerator 0.5.2a is now available for download. ------------------------------------------------------- What can you do with pyExcelerator: Generating Excel 97+ files with Python 2.4+ (need decorators), importing Excel 95+ files, support for UNICODE in Excel files, using variety of formatting features and printing options, Excel files and OLE2 compound files dumper. No need in Windows/COM --------------------------------------------------------- 0.5.2a (18.05.2005) --------- * improved perfomance (especially on nonfragmented streams) * now pyExcelerator can process XLS files with short streams * OLE2 compound document dumper supports short streams * reading UTF-16-LE and Latin-1 with more accuracy * in DSF (double stream file) XLS data extracted from stream "Workbook" * improved floating point/integer values decoding code ---------------------------------------------------------- Also thanks for valuable discussion to /John Machin. / Regards, Roman V.
