Hi and thanks,

yes, i know, that code is needed normally. As nearly
anybody will know, who is able to get such a thing
working. 

However the spread sheet i made consumes more than 
400 lines and there are dependencies not only on numpy
and psyco but also on a .png for background tiling 
and a tool named WidgetFrame from me.

Therefore i tried this fairly general question "Has 
any behavior like this seen before ?". I didn't want
to be predatory and to ask for analysing such a large piece
of code. And still i do not know whether to send these 
many lines as an attachment or directly (and the .png ?).

Please tell me then, how i shall transmit the code, if you
are still willing to shoulder this. I am quite 
happy with my sheet, even if the code is far from being
mature. I'd also be quite happy, if someone else would find it 
useful too. But i see it as a half-baked substitute for
doing this with C. Unfortunately i am too much disgusted
by autoconf to do so. 

The side effects on gtk.Entry (or gtk.CellRenderer)
around are the only sincere problem with my sheet and i would 
rather make an own version of Entry than abandoning with
it (that would not be too difficult with 
pango.Layout.get_pixel_size() ).

Thanks for your attention, Joost Behrends
