Re: [arch-general] "sc" in [community]?

It would be nice if any linux console spreadsheet could somehow acquire a serious functions library. The nearest I suppose anyone can get to that goal is calc under emacs for now, or org-mode. On Sat, 14 Feb 2015, Ido Rosen wrote:

Happy new year,

Would anyone like to bring the venerable UNIX spreadsheet program "sc" into [community]? I'm maintaining it in AUR currently. Many other distros support it. :-)

Sure, I use this a bit and it seems popular. I'll move it soon.

Excellent! Thanks for doing that.

Also, just how we support boost and boost-libs in [extra], POCO[1] is currently in AUR[2] and should probably be in [community] as it's a fairly popular library for developers doing high level network things. It already has 90 votes. (It actually has more than 90 votes, since its votes are diffused amongst poco, poco-dev, and poco-git in AUR, each with varying quality of packaging. Currently, poco and poco-dev are basically the same.)

POCO is a general-purpose C++ framework that does networking, HTTP, SMTP, URI decoding, FTP, websockets, database abstraction (w/session pooling & light ORM), XML parsing/generation, compression, regexes, plugins, string manipulation, OpenSSL wrapping, logging, and a bunch of other things. It's used by a lot of projects,

Thoughts?
