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
