    I want stand-alone spreadsheet tables. Like if I wanted a 3x6 grid that acts like a spreadsheet, without out all of the chrome of a spreadsheet program.

    If not that, system wide spreadsheet functionality whenever a table is invoked.

          I mean, he’s not wrong, but it involves learning emacs and elisp, which is kind of a substantial bar.

          I think tables in Word can be made to do that, but I forget what the field definitions etc are, and it’s probably too limited for your desires.

      This is a fantastic idea. Could it already be done with Jupyter Notebooks? I’ve never used Jupyter before, but it seems like this would be close.
