(n)eoleo

[mark carter]

Hi guys. I am the the author of neoleo, a fork of oleo . I had thought 
oleo to be dead. I noticed that there has seen a tiny amount of activity 
on the official oleo. My efforts have given me some insight as to how 
oleo works.

So if there is anyone out there with commit privileges to oleo, maybe 
they would like to contact me, and we can discuss a way forward in 
getting oleo to compile. It would be way cool to get people interested 
in Oleo again. I seem to remember having it on my Amiga many many years ago.

Neoleo is my hacky attempt at forking Oleo, and I'm sure not up to GNU 
coding standards. But it does incorporate some cool things: it has an 
embedded Forth in it. I am currently working on giving it a headless 
mode (not committed yet), making it a bit like a cross between ed with 
the programmability of emacs (OK, not that powerful, and with Forth 
instead of Lisp) but for spreadsheets. Eventually I hope to make it 
usable within a UNIX pipeline. So really, despite its humbleness, it 
should have the kind of power that other spreadsheets cannot replicate.
