Screenshot About:
Gnumeric is a powerful and easy to use spreadsheet using GNOME. Its goal is to provide a full featured spreadsheet and a smooth migration path for people and organizations currently using proprietary applications. It provides more sheet functions and greatly improved accuracy when compared to Microsoft's Excel. A plugin system lets you extend Gnumeric, adding functions, I/O formats, and real time data capabilities. The existing Python, Guile, and Perl plugins let you define complex functions. Gnumeric is capable of reading and writing MS Excel (XLS and Office Open XML), and reading Lotus, Applix, Quattro Pro, OpenCalc (ODF), XBase, DIF, SYLK, HTML, Psion, MPS, oleo, sc, misc. text formats, and its native XML. It can also generate Latex, HTML, and others.

Release focus: Minor bugfixes

Changes:
This release mostly fixes a large number of problems with corrupted files.

[»] Gnumeric is the best
by Katelin Ganzer - Jun 1st 2008 13:29:10

Gnumeric is probably the best piece of software on the Linux desktop to date. Compliments to the devs on their hard work; especially for the amount of polish that has gone into it!

[»] Wow.
by jsikorski - Nov 2nd 2005 07:28:47

Version 1.6 is a huge step forward for Gnumeric. Barring any undiscovered bugs that may prohibit me from using it, it's now my spreadsheet of choice under Linux. I'm especially impressed with the added configurability of the chart plugin.

Cheers.

[»] Disappointed... just a toy (yet)
by Telcontar - Apr 15th 2004 12:20:55

I am using 1.0.8 (in Debian 3.0 stable), and while gnumeric can sometimes fill an important gap in the Linux desktop, I'm overall disappointed by its shocking incompleteness. I would *never* give such a project the "one dot oh" monicker.

First, a fatal bug prevents using any non-ASCII characters. With each save, these characters get garbled more, so after saving and loading the spreadsheet, it is completely useless.

Then, there is still no function reference(!) in 1.0! The link to the web page shows a useless page with no direct link to a user manual or reference! The "alphabetical list of functions" that one can find using a web search is in fact not alphabetical!

There are other minor issues, which are not crucial. However, if such issues as the ones mentioned above are not resolved, it is not suprising that people dismiss Linux office applications as toys.

    > I am using 1.0.8 (in Debian 3.0 stable),
    That version is slightly over two years old (I uploaded 1.0.8-1t1 on Jun 18 2002). As much as I love Debian stable for a server system, it is unsuitable for many desktop users as its components are simply too old. For a desktop system, Debian testing or unstable are better choices (provided you understand and accept the caveats). If you absolutely must run Debian stable, there's a GNOME 2.2 backport for it which includes a gnumeric 1.2.x package.

[»] Wrong URL
by linux - Jan 18th 2000 20:22:01

There is one error at your page http://www.freshmeat.net/appindex/1998/09/30/907192372.html The URL for downloading gnumeric is NOT ftp://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/gumeric rather the CORRECT url is ftp://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/stable/sources/gumeric Hope you change your listing accordingly. Thanks. Feel free to contact me at knife@newmail.net
