Description : Xxl is a small and fast graphical spreadsheet
(Include the long description here.)
NOTE: Debian packages available at this site.
Software Requirements: STk-4.0.1 , LaTeX
Xxl is a free graphical spreadsheet developed at the University of
Nice for Unix platforms. Xxl is written in STk and is based on the
tkTable widget. Xxl is designed to be simple, easy to use and user
friendly. The aim of xxl is not to compete with commercial
spreadsheets. The latter are often too complex for novices and
provides too much functionnalities for current usages.
This last version of xxl provides a really fonctionnal spreadsheet for
small or middle-size sheets. The model it defines is similar to that
of all present-day spreadsheets. However, this model is limited and
has to be entirely revisited. Xxl should be a stable experimental
platform for future studies, in order to propose a reflexion and to
define tools for a new spreadsheet generation, more simple and secure
to use. This point of vue and more generally the xxl project is
described in this paper.

Hello,
This is an automatic mail sent to close the RFP you have reported or
are involved with.
Your RFP wnpp bug is being closed because of the following reasons:
- It is, as of today, older than 365 days.
- It hasn't had any activity recently.
As this is an automatic procedure, it could of course have something
wrong and probably it would be closing some bugs that are not
intended by owners and submitters (like you) to be closed, for
example if the RFP is still of your interest, or there has been
some kind of activity around it. In that case, please reopen the
bug, do it, DO IT NOW! (I don't want to be blamed because of
mass closing and not let people know that they can easily reopen
their bugs ;-).
To re-open it, you simply have to mail control@bugs.debian.org
with a body text like this:
reopen 309183
thanks bts
Further comments on the work done in the bug sent to
309183@bugs.debian.org would be truly welcomed.
Anyway, if you have any kind of problems when dealing with
the BTS, feel free to contact me and I'd be more than happy to help
you on this: <damog@debian.org>.
A similar process is being applied to other kind of wnpp bugs.
Thanks for your cooperation,
-- David Moreno Garza <damog@debian.org>.
