Org-mode looks useful. Numbers will some day be as good as Excel, not that Excel is good, it is only the investment made by screen reader vendors that make Excel extremely usable.

I haven't tried it yet, but think I can get sc to build on my mac mini. The sc program is a spreadsheet program installed on slackware and available for other flavors of Linux. Maybe better might be to install R or octave on the mac. The aqua emacs edition for the mac is a slashed and burned version of emacs. So far as I can tell, no gnus, no org-mode, and probably missing lots of other things as well. The org-mode application for emacs I like both for mind mapping and keeping a numerology journal and I'll probably find other things to do with that as I play with it. I use org-mode on slackware 13.0 since it came pre-installed on emacs. If it works though I'll be able to install the current version of org-mode on emacs on my mac though. Have to get dependencies and try it maybe this weekend. Anyone wanting to read about org-mode can do so at http://www.orgmode.org but be warned it's a swiss army knife of utilities and the version number is over 7.0, so you may read a little more than a few minutes on that site. __________ View the list's information and change your settings at //www.freelists.org/list/programmingblind __________ View the list's information and change your settings at //www.freelists.org/list/programmingblind
