Don't know this package, but have recommendations.  I have used sc and
its clones (ss is a nice clone, but hard to find, or xspread), but find
them lacking.  I currently use Wingz, which does all the stuff a
spreadsheet ought to do, include read/write at least to older lotus
formats.  sc (etc), though occasionally rumored to do so, do not read or
write in any Lotus-type format, but use a straightforward ascii file
format that I wish commercial spreadsheets would emulate.

Wingz is marginally commercial ($50), and based on Motif.
