;;; Commentary:

;;; To-do list:

;; * M-w should deactivate the mark.
;; * offer some way to use absolute cell addressing.
;; * Maybe some way to copy a reference to a cell's formula rather than the
;;   formula itself.
;; * split (catch 'cycle ...) call back into one or more functions
;; * Use $ or … for truncated fields
;; * M-t to transpose 2 columns.
;; * M-d should kill the cell under point.
;; * C-t to transpose 2 rows.
;; * C-k and M-k should be ses-kill-row and ses-kill-column.
;; * C-o should insert the row below point rather than above?
;; * rows inserted with C-o should inherit formulas from surrounding rows.
;; * Add command to make a range of columns be temporarily invisible.
;; * Allow paste of one cell to a range of cells -- copy formula to each.
;; * Do something about control characters & octal codes in cell print
;;   areas.  Use string-width?
;; * Input validation functions.  How specified?
;; * Faces (colors & styles) in print cells.
;; * Move a column by dragging its letter in the header line.
;; * Left-margin column for row number.
;; * Move a row by dragging its number in the left-margin.

;;; Cycle detection

;; Cycles used to be detected by stationarity of ses--deferred-recalc.  This was
;; working fine in most cases, however failed in some cases of several path
;; racing together.
;;
;; The current algorithm is based on Dijkstra's algorithm.  The cycle length is
;; stored in some cell property. In order not to reset in all cells such
;; property at each update, the cycle length is stored in this property along
;; with some update attempt id that is incremented at each update. The current
;; update id is ses--Dijkstra-attempt-nb. In case there is a cycle the cycle
;; length diverge to infinite so it will exceed ses--Dijkstra-weight-bound at
;; some point of time that allows detection. Otherwise it converges to the
;; longest path length in the update tree.

(defun ses-mode ()
  "Major mode for Simple Emacs Spreadsheet.

When you invoke SES in a new buffer, it is divided into cells
that you can enter data into.  You can navigate the cells with
the arrow keys and add more cells with the tab key.  The contents
of these cells can be numbers, text, or Lisp expressions. (To
enter text, enclose it in double quotes.)

In an expression, you can use cell coordinates to refer to the
contents of another cell.  For example, you can sum a range of
cells with `(+ A1 A2 A3)'.  There are specialized functions like
`ses+' (addition for ranges with empty cells), `ses-average' (for
performing calculations on cells), and `ses-range' and `ses-select'
\(for extracting ranges of cells).

Each cell also has a print function that controls how it is
displayed.

Each SES buffer is divided into a print area and a data area.
Normally, you can simply use SES to look at and manipulate the print
area, and let SES manage the data area outside the visible region.

See \"ses-example.ses\" (in `data-directory') for an example
spreadsheet, and the Info node `(ses)Top.'

In the following, note the separate keymaps for cell editing mode
and print mode specifications.  Key definitions:

\\{ses-mode-map}
These key definitions are active only in the print area (the visible
part):
\\{ses-mode-print-map}
These are active only in the minibuffer, when entering or editing a
formula:
\\{ses-mode-edit-map}"

FROM up to TO.  The range automatically expands to include any
new row or column inserted into its middle.  The SES library code
specifically looks for the symbol `ses-range', so don't create an
alias for this macro!

By passing in REST some flags one can configure the way the range
is read and how it is formatted.

In the sequel we assume that cells A1, B1, A2 B2 have respective values
1 2 3 and 4.

Readout direction is specified by a `>v', `>^', `<v', `<^',
`v>', `v<', `^>', `^<' flag.  For historical reasons, in absence
of such a flag, a default direction of `^<' is assumed.  This
way `(ses-range A1 B2 ^>)' will evaluate to `(1 3 2 4)',
while `(ses-range A1 B2 >^)' will evaluate to (3 4 1 2).

If the range is one row, then `>' can be used as a shorthand to
`>v' or `>^', and `<' to `<v' or `<^'.

If the range is one column, then `v' can be used as a shorthand to
`v>' or `v<', and `^' to `^>' or `v<'.

A `!' flag will remove all cells whose value is nil or `*skip*'.

A `_' flag will replace nil or `*skip*' by the value following
the `_' flag.  If the `_' flag is the last argument, then they are
replaced by integer 0.

A `*', `*1' or `*2' flag will vectorize the range in the sense of
Calc.  See info node `(Calc) Top'.  Flag `*' will output either a
vector or a matrix depending on the number of rows, `*1' will
flatten the result to a one row vector, and `*2' will make a
matrix whatever the number of rows.

Warning: interaction with Calc is experimental and may produce
confusing results if you are not aware of Calc data format.
Use `math-format-value' as a printer for Calc objects."
