Welcome to my fifth port of Gnumeric to AmiCygnix/AmigaOS4.
Gnumeric is a spreadsheet, which is in many points as powerful as the leader
in this category "Excel".

4. The python package
---------------------
The python plug-ins do require a special version of the python interpreter
compiled for AmiCygnix. A python package version 2.6.2 is included in this
archive and will be installed while installation of this package.
These third party python modules are compiled in:
* Imaging 1.1.6 (PIL)
* pygimp 2.6.11
* pygtk 2.24.0
* pygtkunixprint
* pyatk 1.30.0
* pypango 1.24.5
* pypangocairo
* pyglade 2.6.4
* pycairo 1.8.4 (uses Cairo 1.10.2)
* pygobject 2.28.6
* pygsf 1.14.21
* pylibxml2 2.6.19
* sqlite3 3.3.13
With this python package you can also run scripts, which depend on pyGTK.
You can find some examples in the directory "Cygnix:Software/Python-2.7.2".
Interesting demos:
* Cygnix:Software/Python-2.7.2/pyGTK/Start_pygtk-demo_Desktop.bat or
Cygnix:Software/Python-2.7.2/pyGTK/Start_pygtk-demo_Standalone.bat
Opens a window with many GTK+ examples including code.
* Cygnix:Software/Python-2.7.2/pyGTK/Start_pyide_Desktop.bat or
Cygnix:Software/Python-2.7.2/pyGTK/Start_pyide_Standalone.bat
Opens a python console for testing python commands.
* Cygnix:Software/Python-2.7.2/pyCairo/Start_snippets_gtk_Desktop.bat or
Cygnix:Software/Python-2.7.2/pyCairo/Start_snippets_gtk_Standalone.bat
Shows a window with many examples for the cairo graphics library.
5. How to install python plug-ins
---------------------------------
Like normal plug-ins, python plug-ins are stored into the directory
"Cygnix:CygnixPPC/lib/gnumeric/1.10.17/plugins". They are automatically
activated on start up.
Unfortunately there are no third party plug-ins available.
6. How to write your own python plug-in
---------------------------------------
Unfortunately there is no detailed documentation available. Here is a link
to the official documentation:
http://projects.gnome.org/gnumeric/doc/sect-extending-python.shtml
7. Known problems
-----------------
* The online help system is not working.
* The background pattern of the objects can not be changed.
* Drag & drop does not work.
* The linear solver "lp_solve" is not included in the package, only the
linear solver "GLPK". Support for external solvers is working, but not
intensively tested.
Please copy available binaries of "lp_solve" to "Cygnix:CygnixPPC/bin".
8. Installation
---------------
The X11 environment AmiCygnix version 1.2 (or higher) must be installed
before! AmiCygnix is available on OS4-depot (http://os4depot.net).
To install the package, just click on the install icon. The data will be
installed into the AmiCygnix package. Afterwards you can find the programs in
"Cygnix:Software/Gnumeric-1.10.17". To launch the program doubleclick on
"Start_Gnumeric_Desktop.bat" or "Start_Gnumeric_Standalone.bat".
