+Teapot is a compact spreadsheet software originally written by Michael Haardt.
+It features a (n)curses-based text terminal interface, and recently also a
+FLTK-based GUI.
+
+Another interesting feature is its modern approach to spread sheet theory: It
+sports true three-dimensional tables and iterative expressions. And since it
+breaks compatibility with the usual notions of big spreadsheet packages, it
+can also throw old syntactic cruft over board which many spreadsheets still
+inherit from the days of VisiCalc on ancient CP/M systems.
