Synopsis: Gnumeric Portable is a spreadsheet that supports all the worksheet functions in MS Excel, as well as many advanced analytical and computation functions. Its many import/export filters supports many third party spreadsheet formats directly. Gnumeric Portable is a portable wrapper for Gnumeric that ensures that settings are saved in the application folder.

Synopsis: Abykus Standard Edition is a "8191 row x 127 column x 16 sheets" spreadsheet. It has been designed designed for business and scientific applications. The program combines object-oriented functionality with traditional spreadsheet operations, allowing you to store multi-value data types (such as arrays and matrixes) in a single cell. Abykus has also replaced the standard "A1" cell naming convention with a notation that uses numbers (i.e. algebraic expressions) or even other cell addresses to represent a cell's row and column position. Among the many features: Import CSV, TXT, DIF files; Load multiple worksheets; Dynamic cell addressing; 3D cell addresses; more than 150 functions; Wine compatible; C-like Script Language.

Note #1: This application has gone adware and starts with an AD splashscreen.

Note #2: Abykus has gone totally payware with V2.0, so I have made available the last free version for direct download.

Synopsis: Simple Spreadsheet is a very basic spreadsheet. It has minimal features, but does what it says.
