What is Reddit's opinion of
Gnumeric?

I have all the glyph-groups in a rather large Gnumeric speadsheet. I'm basing my work on the digital transcription system at Voynich Central which has been processed with a Lisp program I helped design with the assistance of a coder buddy. I'm probably a little less than half-way to associating all the groups to known words in dialect/language that the original theorist proposed.
Gnumeric has excellent statistical functionality and is very intuitive to use. See what it can do: http://projects.gnome.org/gnumeric/doc/chapter-stat-analysis.shtml
I also use Kst2 to plot things.
User alphabetcereal compiled this chart and others for 2010, using these tools. He's a statistician by trade. You may want to PM him to get more info on sources, methodology, etc. so you can ensure your work is ironclad.
That's fair enough and I know what you mean - it's not the easiest thing to learn! I've had to team it up with Evernote so I can have default code snippets already to copy and paste and place into place and I have a template with the packages put in already (with comments on what they do lol)
In terms of tables for future use (if you perverse with LaTeX at some point), I found the use of GNUMeric to be extremely helpful in the creation of tables (as it allows creation Excel style and then saving as a LaTeX output. Still requires some tweaking at times but otherwise nails it pretty well.
Okay, so the easiest way to do this is to open the file with a spreadsheet program like excel or gnumeric, then delete any columns with information that should not get out (like ip addresses, passwords, computer names). Then all you have to do is upload the modified file someplace like rapidshare and distribute the link. Reddit would probably be a good place to begin distribution.
