Re: how to convert VB scripts to Gnumeric python

[Morten Welinder <mortenw gnome org>]

Major progress on my end.  I found two major sources of crashes (1: many of our

boxed types were bad; 2: some pygobject versions fail on transfer-full arguments).

You can follow the battle at
    https://git.gnome.org/browse/gnumeric/tree/README-introspection
although that file may move.  This file also contains the "blessed" API.

This is still evolving.

My main test script is at
    https://git.gnome.org/browse/gnumeric/tree/test/t3001-introspection-simple.py

It does pretty much everything one can do to a workbook other than file i/o.

(That's somewhere on my list.)

Note: I have marked lots of functions as "skip" because they are low-level functions

not intended for scripting.  Most of GnmCell's methods are like that.  They don't do
what you would expect of them and there are proper alternatives, typically in Sheet.
