OK, if you are the one less skilled Python programmer, could you help me, I need something: - do you know tabulated list mode? - it provides ID of the line, so in Emacs I can specify key binding to execute function on the ID of the line - tabulated list mode is similar to spreadsheet - to start with it, I needed minutes, something like some coffee break period, the rest is history - I have tried searching for GUI spreadsheet like widget in various programming languages, and I found it very complex. Please show me how is that to be implemented in Python? If I get that I would maybe like to liberate the Emacs version to some other GUI. I give you example of usage: - list all contacts as people names, with their people list - click on single contact, get all phone numbers, emails, etc. - click on single phone, send SMS - mark phone, e-mail, XMPP username, write message once, send to all - search people by skill, mark, send email to all of them at once -- Jean Take action in Free Software Foundation campaigns: https://www.fsf.org/campaigns In support of Richard M.
