- TurboCalc is pretty reasonable, though it still has a few rough edges.
- V2.0 is certainly worth $40; V3.5 is not a lot more. TurboCalc provides
- a good collection of arithmetic and trigonometric functions and it has an
- ARexx interface, so you should be able to do pretty much what you want as
- long as you don't need PostScript output or highly-customized graphics.
