Hi there,

I'm thinking *using Vim for spreadsheets*, for a few *reasons*:
 - you can *diff* it ! (For me, that's the main reason)
 - vim key mappings
 - vimscript, so I can easily program it myself
 - easy to add my own key mappings
 - faster to open and save than Libreoffice

I've done a bit of research and found these so far:

- *csv.vim*:
      http://www.256bit.org/~chrisbra/csv.gif
      https://github.com/chrisbra/csv.vim
inspired by this advice for CSV files:
       http://vim.wikia.com/wiki/Working_with_CSV_files
seems to be maybe the best one at the moment... I haven't had the time to
try it out yet

 - *spreadsheet**.**vim*:
      http://www.vim.org/scripts/script.php?script_id=558
seems dead (not updated for 11 years now). But might do the job anyway?

 - *vim**-orgmode* (vim plugin) => todo list, project planning

 - *table-mode*:
      https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qA-ZT2r5-t0
      http://www.vim.org/scripts/script.php?script_id=4501
not really a spreadsheet... it seems like it's for displaying something as
a table.

 - *Tcalc*:
      http://tcalc.berlios.de/
not really a spreadsheet: "allows you to to do all your accounting with
plain text files using the full power of your favorite text editor". "It is
a command line tool that operates as a filter. It processes your accounting
files as it's input, performs all the calculations, and outputs a report in
the format of the original file[s]."

 - *sc* or *slsc*:
      ftp://space.mit.edu/pub/davis/slsc/
a spreadsheet with vim-like keybindings, so not strictly Vim


Has anyone used any of these? How was it?

Cheers =)
