Siag is a spreadsheet based on X and Scheme. I originally wrote it
out of frustration with the fact that almost no free, good looking
applications were available for Linux. It is based on my old
program Calc, which I started writing in the late -80's.
The program has existed in several incarnations: text-based curses for
SunOS,
text-based hardcoded vt52 for Atari TOS, GEM-based for Atari,
Turbo C for DOS,
Xlib-based for Linux and now Xt-based for Linux (or Unix, really).
