I'm look for a Spreadsheet to run on my ST.  It doesn't have to
be very fancy, but should have the following features.

	- GEM interface that works ( I hate arrow keys )
	- scientific functions (sin/cos/ln/log/... etc)
	- being  able to read in ascii data from a file into
	  columns and/or rows
	- being able to dump rows/columns to ascii file
	- save/restore whole spreadsheet to file

I have looked at Vip Professional and didn't like it, because
it didn't have a GEM interface and it was a bit expensive.
Granted, it has a lot of features, but features don't do me any
good, if I don't like the user interface.  I wanted to look at
Antic's A-Calc Prime, but the dealer's disk was bad.

Any help would be appreciated, I'll post a summary of what I find
out.
