[Python-announce] [RELEASE] pyspread 2.4

pyspread 2.4
============
This release adds basic Excel syntax for cell code.
New features:
  * If a cell code starts with `=` then it is interpreted as Excel syntax
    (optional dependency `pycel` required). Limitations of `pycel` apply.
  * New action insert and shift/delete and shift cells that shift
    below/right cells.
  * Cell formats can now be set to defaults, which allows to let a cell
    follow the OS theme, e.g. for a dark theme, the cell background of
    the black, while it may be white for the identical pys file on light
    theme.
  * Files can now be opened via drag 'n drop
Bug fixes:
  * Several bugs that appear with Python 3.13 fixed, e.g. printing,
    cell referencing, grid resizing
  * The entry line is now updated on a table change
  * Globals are now cleared after initializing the grid
