Hi folks, I use a color Mac II at work and have a IIGS at home, Until
recently I haven't had any need for a spreadsheet at home.  Now I do
and cannot find one.  I am looking for a powerful, mouse and windows
interface based spreadsheet for the Apple IIGS.  Graphics would be
nice but are not necessary.  It has to be not copy protected and must
run under Prodos 8 or GS/OS.  I have played with Mouse Calc and it is
truly awful.  Any other suggestions?

I have been terribly spoiled by using Microsoft Excel on my Mac II at
work.  Are there any Apple IIGS products that come close?

(I Don't really want to buy AppleWorks GS just to get the spreadsheet,
but how good is it anyway?)

If there are no Mouse based ones, could someone suggest a powerful,
easy to use command based one that also works under ProDOS 8 or GS/OS?

Seymour
