I have a question for developers that know Eu internals. I miss a text mode spreadsheet.

"For MS Excel 2010, Row numbers ranges from 1 to 1048576; in total 1048576 rows, and Columns ranges from A to XFD; in total 16384 columns."

I said: Why not? 

sequence line 
line = repeat ("", 16384) 
 
sequence sheet 
sheet = repeat(line, 2000000) 
 
sheet[1][1]=1 
sheet[1][2]=2 
sheet[1][3]=3 
sheet[1][4]=4 
sheet[1][5]=5 
 
for i=1  to 5 do 
    ? sheet[1][i] 
end for

Runs very quick! I supossed will take longer time. Does the interpreter create the whole structure of 16K columns and 2M Rows when I declare the sequence? Or is the structure created on demand when I put data inside?

I was thinking a simple spreadsheet may work simple with two sequences: One for formulas and another sequence for calculation results.
