Simple Spreadsheet Editor on Terminal (ncurses)

Xeratul · 03-26-2017, 05:58 AM

Hello,

I was looking for a CSV viewer/editor on Linux.

There is SC, but also : http://mamchenkov.net/wordpress/2016...or-improvised/
https://linuxaria.com/article/10-programs-terminal

For fun, I just made a tiny viewer of CSV files. It is useful to quickly view some CSV files: nspread.
https://github.com/spartrekus/nsprea...et-for-ncurses
(it is very very very basic until now, but step by step, it will be more elaborated with the time).

If you are interested to join the dev, please let me know. The more we are the better.

Thank you

Hello

Sorry, but I think you misunderstood the purpose of a versioning tool like git... It's for the sources... Not to store archived sources... Moreover using "zip" format.

Before asking for followers, you should start by "follow" (contribute to) some projects before. This would help you to understand basic concept about team work and development in general.

Note that I appreciate that you try to do "stuff" on your own, those are very good exercises on their own, but you need more experience to "lead" one project like this.

Bests,

Garry

The funny thing is I do not see any source files in the repository Xeratul has posted. There's a GPL3 license file which basically allows me to demand a source copy of the distributed software (though I'm not a lawyer and could be wrong about this), but there's no source, only compiled 32 bit ELF binary and a ZIP archive containing the exact copy of this binary (among other files).

A really strange way to ask joining the development of the project.

I am a programming beginner, that contributes at my level. You can improve the source code if you'd like. It's GNU.

Hard to know how to start with this...

Clone your repository.

Do the following:

Code:

cp nspread-v03.zip ~
git rm *.zip
git rm nspread
unzip ~/nspread-v03.zip
git add *
git commit -m "Putting source files under version control"
git push origin master

On the GIT website:

Source: https://github.com/spartrekus/nsprea...pread-v0.3.zip

Good Evening

Then you're not taking advantage of your source version control system's ability to version control your sources.

See my edited post for how to fix that.

I have no idea yet, what is the "source version control system's ability". Step by step, I will look a bit later what it could be.
