PMJI but I'm also looking for a calculator program - in my case, one that emulates the "Texas Instruments BA-II Executive Business Analyst." The BA-II can do loan amortization, future value, solve for APR, bond yield, etc. There is a shareware program for Windows that emulates the BA-II - it's called CalcPac - but I can't find one for Linux by googling, etc.
Perhaps you can run CalcPac in wine?
Hmmmm. I've never used wine before. I used Crossover Office (which I assume is a dressed-up interface for wine) back when I was using RH 7.1. I'll take a look at a HowTo or whatever and see if I can try it.
Thanks. Kelly
Crossover Office or rather Codeweavers are one of the main contributors to wine development and they are usually ahead of wine. Customers pay them to support a particular app and later they plough the changes into wine when the contract allows, e.g Disney could not get Adobe to port Photoshop to Linux, so they paid Codeweavers to support it under Crossover Office for a measley $15,000.00 US. If wine now supports Photoshop, it's thanks to Codeweavers ... unless they are still under non-disclosure. It's definitely supported under crossover. They are extending the range of apps supported all the time, sometimes when enough people request it on their mailing list or when someone pays them to. There aren't many if any other companies where the CEO fields technical questions about their products. Regards Sid. -- Sid Boyce ...
