Besides Linux, the new version also runs on Windows (Windows 7 64bit
and Windows XP 32bit tested).


About pyspread
==============

Pyspread is a non-traditional spreadsheet application that is based on
and written in the programming language Python. 

The goal of pyspread is to be the most pythonic spreadsheet application.

Pyspread is free software. It is released under the GPL v3.

What is new in 0.2.4
====================

 + Windows compatibility
 + More charts and chart options (box plots, histograms, pie charts)
 + Export of matplotlib charts to svg, png, pdf, eps and ps
 + Import from UTF-8 encoded csv files (no other encoding, yet)
 + More than 64k characters supported in one cell
 + Insertion and deletion of rows and columns now affect only the
   current table
 + High quality in-cell bitmaps images (with transparency) supported
 + Iterable data can be pasted into multiple cells via Paste As...
 + Pyspread can now be started from other Python applications
 + Partly localized in Nowegian Nynorsk and Bokmaal

Known issues
============

 + Selection mode is disabled in Windows.
 + "Find & Replace All" is slow in grids with much data unless pyspread
   is minimized.
 + Paste As... does not work if dates are present in the data structure.
 + Sometimes, pressing redo when there is nothing left to redo has
   undesired effects such as redoing an operation again.
 + When updating from a non-release version (from git), the file 
   ~/.pyspreadrc (in Windows pyspread's registry entry) may have to be
   deleted.
