This is terrible news... I wish someone would pick up this program, upgrade
it and restart distribution.  I for one would pay for an upgrade.  It is
the best bloody spreadsheet I have used, except for its poor programming
environment (a key improvement in any possible upgrade, anyone?), with
great graphics.  I mean, which other spreadsheet can calculate a 
gudermannian function today, never mind four or five years ago?
