Does anyone use sc, the text based spreadsheet program?

Hi,

(Not a precise answer to your question):


I remember 'slsc', a text based spreadsheet, based on 'sc', but more
advanced. Unfortunately, Debian doesn't contain it any more.

At least up to Debian 3, this prog was provided.

If you can find an 'slsc' source, you might be instrumental in
bringing it back to life. You'll probably prefer it to 'sc'.


I recompiled slsc. Neat! This is what I did:

1. download 2 slsc source files from the sarge archives
2. tar -xzvf slsc_0.2.3.orig.tar.gz
3. rename slsc to slsc-0.2.3
4. patch -p0 <slsc_0.2.3-8.diff
   Next there are 3 depends to satisfy:
5. download libslang1-dev_1.4.9dbs-11_amd64.deb for etch on the archive + install 6. download libslang1_1.4.9dbs-11_amd64.deb for etch on the archive + install 7. download rpm: http://rpm.pbone.net/index.php3/stat/3/srodzaj/1/search/libtermcap.so.2()(64bit)
8. alien the rpm + install the .deb.
9. link libtermcap.a in /usr/lib64 to /usr/lib
10. comment dh_testversion in debian/rules...
11. dpkg-buildpackage -uc -us -rfakeroot
12. dpkg -i slsc_0.2.3-8_amd64.deb

Comes with man page + tutorial:

slsc -C /usr/lib/slsc/tutorial.sc

Blazing colors!
