Siag has support for several file formats:
- Siag
- Native Siag format, with support for Scheme and C-style
expressions as well as formatting attributes (fonts,
widths and so on). Very nice for Siag documents, but
totally incompatible with anything else.
- Comma Separated Values
- Almost every spreadsheet can
load and save this format, but all expressions are
lost. Despite its name, any character can be used
as field separator.
- Plain Text
- Every line is loaded as a label and placed in column 1
of successive rows.
- Lotus 1-2-3
- Siag imports documents in Lotus Worksheet format and
can save values in the same format.
- Postscript
- Siag can output pretty decent Postscript code, with
DSC comments and all to make the resulting files
post-processable. Normally, this code goes straight
to the printer or to Ghostview for previewing, but
it can also be saved in a file. Siag cannot load
Postscript files.
- HTML Tables
- Hypertext Markup Language as featured on the World Wide Web.
A spreadsheet maps nicely to the HTML table format,
and Siag can save and load (well-behaved) documents
in this format.
- Scheme Code
- Files containing Scheme code can be loaded and evaluated.
- Troff Tables
- Tables which can be processed by tbl to produce input
to the troff document formatting system.
- LaTeX Tables
- Tables which can be included in documents using the
LaTeX typesetting package.
Additional formats can be supported by using external converters,
such as xls2cvs for Microsoft Excel.
