== OCT interface == | |||
Since io package version 1.2.4, an interface called "OCT" was added. Except for unzip, it has no dependencies. It's still experimental but fast! Feel free to test it and give us a feedback. | |||
Currently it just support reading .xlsx, .ods and .gnumeric files. Writing is not supported yet! | |||
If | |||
<pre>chk_spreadsheet_support == 0</pre> | |||
it's used automatically (default interface). Otherwise you can force the usage like | |||
<pre>m=xlsread('file.xlsx',1,[],'OCT');</pre> | |||
