> Spreadsheets in the terminal: Totally doable. I disagree. I find vim, mutt and pandoc superior to LO Writer and Thundrbird for text editing and emailing, but sc is just nowhere near LO Calc or even Gnumeric. I really wish someone would make a text user interface for Gnumeric.
Have you tried Org mode tables? They have some spreadsheet functionality, but I'm not sure how big the overlap is.
However, the sad state state of the world is that other people use Word and Excel to edit documents. I wish there was a program that would do to Excel spreadsheets what Pandoc does to Word documents: Letting you edit them in the terminal and allowing you to pass them off to other people in the formats they prefer.
Those other people would hate me if I sent them Emacs Org mode spreadsheets to work on.
