+SS is a spreadsheet program. It is based upon the well known(?) public
+domain spreadsheet program sc 6.19.
+This is an ASCII spreadsheet program. This is not Lotus 1-2-3. It is
+not Microsoft Excel. It does not do graphs or charts. It does not do
+drawings. It does not use a mouse.
+It _does_ do a fine job of manipulating rows and columns of numbers. Want
+a simple way of managing your students' grades, calculating class
+averages, etc? No problem. Want to figure out how much money you can
+borrow from the bank for a mortgage? We can do that.

+Note: For all purposes and means this project is suspended, but many
