Thanks all for the input!
For what I can see, the quoted comment was introduced by Kurt Zenker in
Sep-2006.
ROT13 and the other date management functions present in the calc/addin code
seem to be part of the newer (UNO based?) scadding functions.
I've tested ROT13 and a couple of the others succesfully. In fact, after
removing the calc/addin directory there seems to be no change to the actual
list
of functions in calc.
If you prefer to wait until this patch (removing calc/addin) has been tested
for
a while, that should be fine.
I get the impression that this old mechanism is no longer used, but it might be
worth waiting a little bit before removing (?).
Happy to proceed either way.
Thanks & regards,
Alfonso

I've a (very) vague memory of something like ROT13 implemented through
this ?
e.g. =ROT13("apple")
I'm probably wrong, or a decade out of date on that one, but see if that
works before/after AddIn disabling.
