Dear Group,

The first spreadsheet implementation in TiddlyWiki, MathCell written
by Bradley Meck in March 2006 - though still able to solve simplest
calculations and inline editing of TiddlyWiki tables (in combination
of Eric's QuickEdit_convert [*] to toggle between table and csv
syntax) - has lost it's ability for any more advanced equations with
the latest TW versions.

Is there anybody willing and able for a rewrite to make it compatible
again?


It's only 13KB of well structured and commended code and don't believe
would cause too much headache.

It's original 2.0.6 TW version is archived here:

And this's with an upgraded TW version:

Thanks!

Some improvement suggestions:

# ability to indicate a particular spreadsheet in the macro, so it
would display right upon opening
# recognizing spreadsheets in hidden sections of tiddlers
# automatic adjustment of column widths
# ability to change the number of rows and columns in view mode
# wikifying content as GridPlugin is able to

Yeah, I agree, it would be great if we could get a spreadsheet plugin
up and running again...

Cheers,
