Package: gnumeric
Version: 0.57
Severity: wishlist

I would like to have LaTeX2e export in gnumeric that is easy to
include in normal latex files.  I include an TeX-based implementation
suggestion.

Suggestion: have gnumeric use the following template for exporting
LaTeX2e.

	% TeXbook ex 7.7
	\def\ifundefined#1{\expandafter\ifx\csname#1\endcsname\relax}
	\ifundefined{gnumericSheetHeader}
		\documentclass[11pt]{article}
		\usepackage{umlaut}
		\usepackage{color}
		\oddsidemargin -0.54cm
		\textwidth 17cm
		\parskip 1em
		\def\gnumericEndSpreadsheet{\end{document}}
		\def\gnumericSheetHeader#1{#1}
		\def\gnumericBeginSpreadSheet{\begin{document}}
	\else
		\def\gnumericEndSpreadsheet{}
		\def\gnumericBeginSpreadSheet{}        
	\fi

	\gnumericBeginSpreadSheet

	\gnumericSheetHeader{Sheet1}
	% the sheet itself
	\begin{tabular}{|l|}\hline
		 \textsf{1}
	\\\hline
	\end{tabular}

	\gnumericSheetHeader{Sheet2}

	% the sheet itself
	\begin{tabular}{|l|}\hline
		 \textsf{1}\\\hline
	\end{tabular}

	\gnumericEndSpreadsheet

You can run this through LaTeX directly, but if you define
\gnumericSheetHeader, you can also include it in a report, eg.  

	\documentclass{article}

	\begin{document}
	\def\gnumericSheetHeader#1{\textbf{#1}}

	\section*{Financial results}

	\input Book1

	\end{document}
