Gnumeric is a powerful and easy to use spreadsheet using GNOME. Its goal is to provide a full featured spreadsheet and a smooth migration path for people and organizations currently using proprietary applications. It provides more sheet functions and greatly improved accuracy when compared to Microsoft’s Excel. A plugin system lets you extend Gnumeric, adding functions, I/O formats, and real time data capabilities. The existing Python, Guile, and Perl plugins let you define complex functions. Gnumeric is capable of reading and writing MS Excel (XLS and Office Open XML), and reading Lotus, Applix, Quattro Pro, OpenCalc (ODF), XBase, DIF, SYLK, HTML, Psion, MPS, oleo, sc, misc. text formats, and its native XML. It can also generate Latex, HTML, and others.
Changes: Fixes were made for storing of error-literals in ODF, display of autocomplete suggestions, formatting of multirow cells in LaTeX export, a crash in excelplugin, cursor appearance, an ODF read problem, a rendering problem with iterated evaluation, a solver undo problem, a graph label problem, a GLPK solver issue, an ssindex crash, ODF export of intersection, and cell comment critical. Filter combos are not exported to ODF. A filter is applied on ODF import. Exported LaTeX files are protected from babel shorthands. The -Wstrict-prototypes compilation option was turned off for the stable series.
