Ability to assign numerical variables to bullet items

In terms of airtable all I mean is that by inserting a column with the ‘#Number’ variable type, you could assign each row (each item) a number e.g. [image] The equivalent of this in dynalist (my proposal) is something like this: [image] But where those numbers are actually proper variables which are ‘properties’ of each bullet point (i.e. effectively a numerical tag on which you can do mathematical operations)

although markdown table support is a planned feature in dynalist already (last time I checked), why not have support for embedding CSV type data?

For instance,

say I have this CSV file with this data

Resaving the .csv file into .txt looks like this:

why not have spreadsheet functionality right inside the note like this? (its very similar to @piotr code block support in some ways for activating the table - found here: Multi-line code blocks - #23 by Vincent_Tang - basicaly press a hotkey to activate a tamperscript to make the excel spreadsheet)

When you actually move values inside the spreadsheet, it will update the node-unrendered contents values

Subsequently have really basic math support for multiplication, adding, subtraction, division. And adding new rows and columns of data

Use libreoffice, or apache open-offices source code for reference

The other option is just use airtable and embed it right in dynalist though

this should be lumped in with the feature adding columns to items
