Write ooxml .ods (spreadsheat) from python?

Neal Becker

I'd like to output some data directly in .ods format. This format appears
to be quite complex. Is there any python software available to do this? I
did look at pyuno briefly. It looks pretty complicated also, and it looks
like it uses it's own private version of python, which would not help me.

You're not wrong. Have you looked at this:

Presumably you mean the OpenDocument Spreadsheet format. That's not
OOXML, it's ODF, the international standard document format
implemented in OpenOffice.org, KOffice, and many others.

<URL:http://opendocument.xm...

Note that OOXML is not related to OpenOffice.org. Also note that
OOXML, as specified, is not implemented by *any* software at present,
and there are strong reasons to believe it cannot feasibly be
implemented as specified. (Microsoft Office 2007 implements it only
partially, but writes documents incompatible with the standard; e.g.
the spreadsheet data contains binary blobs not documented in the OOXML
specification.)

Sorry for the confusion, yes I meant OpenDocument Spreadsheat format.

Hold the artichokes and anchovies as well. But bring on the jalapenos
and pesto. As for the spinach, just substitute sausage and pepperoni
and we're done here. No *real* fan of pizza would put a pie with
spinach in the top 10.

Peace,

Hold the freakin pineapple too. Pineapple + pizza = seriously bad
idea.

You're starting to sound like D-Kell dissing real beers in favor of that
fruity alco-pop stuff he likes. I repeat, my favorite pizza ever had
spinach on it, and I've eaten enough pizza over the decades (including those
supposed world's-greatest in places like NYC and Chicago) to qualify as a
real fan. I don't know how they got it to taste that way, but everyone who
tried it, despite their initial skepticism, loved it. I suppose the secret
was it was just a goddam good pizza to start with and from then on the
toppings almost didn't matter. However if you're into those heart-stopper
specials with enough fatty meat to drive your cholesterol through the roof,
okay, enjoy (and buy insurance).

If you must have spinach, go with schiacciata (sort of like a stuffed
pizza).
