Excel goes in-house

.xlsx, .xlsb and .xls are now read by our own parser - about 4,400 lines of new reader code - and calamine is gone, taking five transitive crates with it.

What that buys:

  • All three containers share one cell model and one number-format renderer, so dates, currencies and rounding come out the same whichever way a workbook was saved.
  • Workbook bugs are now fixable in this repo instead of waiting on an upstream release.
  • Six fewer crates to build and audit.

Smarter Markdown escaping

Backslashes now only appear where emphasis could actually form. a *b 2 * 3 comes out as written, not a \*b 2 \* 3.

Fixes

  • | inside a code span no longer splits table rows
  • docx no longer fuses words together at run boundaries
  • epubs with a repeated spine part no longer duplicate the chapter
