GNUMERIC(1)			     GNOME			   GNUMERIC(1)

NAME
       gnumeric - a GNOME spreadsheet application.

SYNOPSIS
       gnumeric [OPTIONS] [files ... ]

DESCRIPTION
       Gnumeric	 is  a	powerful  spreadsheet  program	created	 by  the GNOME
       project. Gnumeric intends to compete with  commercial  spreadsheets  by
       becoming fully compatible with Microsoft Excel(TM) and through the sup‐
       port of most popular spreadsheet file formats such as Excel(TM),	 Lotus
       1-2-3(TM), Applix(TM), Sylk(TM), XBase(TM), Oleo(TM) and OpenOffice.org
       formats.

       Gnumeric supports advanced calculations	using  statistical,  financial
       and  database  access  functions. Plotting data is supported through an
       incomplete but powerful plotting system. A plugin system	 extends  gnu‐
       meric  ,	 for  instance	enabling  the  export  of  data	 to  the LaTeX
       \longtable format. Plugins can be used to define custom	functionality.
       A  rudimentary scripting API for the Python language exists and will be
       extended in the near future. Since gnumeric is free software,  gnumeric
       can also be extended directly at the source code level by any competent
       programmer.

       The program can be started from the command line as  gnumeric  or  from
       one  of	the menus provided by the underlying platform. When started on
       the command line, gnumeric may be followed by the options listed	 below
       and  possibly  the  names of files in various spreadsheet formats which
       will then be opened immediately. For instance, the command:

	   gnumeric myfile.gnumeric

       will launch gnumeric and open the file  called  "myfile.gnumeric".  The
       default	gnumeric  file	format	is in extensible markup language (XML)
       which subsequently has been compressed with gzip.

USER OPTIONS
       This program follows the usual GNU command  line	 syntax,  with	single
       letter  options	starting  with	a single dash (`-') and longer options
       starting with two dashes (`--').

   Help options
       -?, --help Show help message.

       --usage
	      Displays a brief usage message.

   Gnumeric options
       -v, --version
	      Displays the version number of the installed  instance  of  gnu‐
	      meric.

       --no-splash
	      Start  gnumeric  without	showing the splash screen.  The splash
	      screen is normally shown if loading files takes too long.

       -L, --lib-dir=STRING
	      Set the root library directory to STRING which should be a path‐
	      name.

       -D, --data-dir=STRING
	      Adjust the root data directory to STRING which should be a path‐
	      name.

   Options for window placement
       -g, --geometry=WIDTHxHEIGHT+XOFF+YOFF
	      Set the size and position of the first window. All units are  in
	      pixels.  The  X offset is from the left hand side of the screen,
	      the Y offset is  from  the  top  of  the	screen.	 For  example,
	      -g=800x600+20+30	will open a gnumeric window 800 pixels wide by
	      600 pixels high, with the left edge of gnumeric 20  pixels  from
	      the  left	 of  the screen and the top edge of gnumeric 30 pixels
	      from the top of the screen.

       --display=DISPLAY
	      X display to use, where DISPLAY has the  form  machinename:Xdis‐
	      play.Screen. Note that the machine displaying gnumeric must have
	      granted the machine running gnumeric the right to	 display  (see
	      xhost).

       --screen=SCREEN
	      X	 screen	 to  use,  a  more  compact  form of the functionality
	      described above.

       --enable-sound
