Re: spreadsheet (excel, WingzPro)



Hi,

  I haven't played with the Linux version yet, but I have used the HP-UX
versions for 5 years.  Wingz is the spreadsheet only, WingzPro includes
the scripting tools.  WingzPro allows you to write entire applications
based on the spreadsheet with a GUI front end.  The scripting language
is extremely powerful and allows you to create very complex front ends
for data base and other applicaitons.

Regards,

Jon.
