I'm working on an engineering program that operates under UNIX and X-Windows
on about a half-dozen popular platforms.  For the newest version, I've been
given the task of investigating the possibility of adding some kind of
spreadsheet capability.  It would be used for a variety of editing and
display tasks.  Optimally, I would like to find some third-party software
that can be linked into the main program, and could transfer data back
and forth in a straightforward manner.  I suppose some kind of X widget
spreadsheet might also work.  Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Check out the Xess spread sheet from Applied Information Systems in
Chapel Hill North Carolina. It has extensive general spread sheet
capabilities plus a complete API through which other programs may be
attached. The other programs may even run on other platforms in your
network such as a Cray Y/MP.
