Giov & All,
WizoScript has the ability to read in values from LibreOffice calc spreadsheets so long as they are saved in xlsx format. Also, there is a Python API interface library for LibreOffice that I am still trying to make heads or tails of in my "copious free time." If the appropriate calls can be decoded and integrated into WizoScript, this could become a "solved" issue. (A) I am still trying to wrap (what's left of) my mind around Python and (B) I am moderately close to being buried in work.
That said, I have been making (a bit of) progress towards a scheme to use CSV file output to "drive" a number of WizoScript operations. The WizoScript csv library has a number of capabilities along these lines. The hard part is setting up an applied type value that defines what the CSV file values will be used to accomplish. I have mostly used this ability to set Equation Editor values (at this point in time), but I have been scheming about how to make this a more generalized data-import tool.
It has been more than two decades since I was a hotshot programmer (in C and FORTH) for DOS or Linux applications. You use it or you lose it -- and I have lost it!
