Hi all,
The example loadrec.py illustrates the usage of PyExcelerator.
However it seems PyExcelerator is no longer maintained
Is it planned to adapt the example wrt xlwt ?
http://pypi.python.org/pypi/xlwt
Cheers,
Nils
True it is no longer maintained, but it does work. We are looking into xlwt (I wasn’t aware of it until today when you forwarded the message)

I’ve added support for xlwt in svn r6560 – give it a whirl

Any idea ?

Works for me if I disable text.usetex in ~/.matplotlib/matplotlibrc, but for what reason ?

Hi Nils. I think I fixed the issue causing the traceback with r6563. Can
you please update and try again with text.usetex enabled?
My guess is that you don't have dvipng installed, which was causing the
detection check to throw a traceback rather than return a value
signifying undetected. So, enabling usetex should again trigger the
check, but hopefully this time it will fail gracefully rather than crashing.

Hi Andrew,
Thank you very much !
Works for me.
