That could probably be arranged, and it is definitely a good idea. Markdown would work well with it. My conventions so far are that spreadsheet lines start with anything (though that could be changed to "|" since that is the separator), "command" lines start with % and comments with #. I guess I could change it so that spreadsheet lines start with "|", command lines with "%", and everything else is considered Markdown. Similarly, Markdown could be changed to accept these characters as starting special "spreadsheet" lines.
The syntax is something I kind of threw together in haste, with only guide to have it similar to Excel syntax, so there is a lot of room for improvement, and I am not too committed to it at the moment. (To begin with, we need to have a lot more commands created. Right now it only does sums, products and averages.)
Keep on throwing ideas! The more the better. On Apr 21, 2006, at 4:58 PM, Robert M. Ullrey wrote:
Excellent. And I concur with Nathan.

Nice!
Now we just need to be able to use Markdown inline with it and you'd have yourself a pretty good wordprocessor ;)
