+tapecalc (calculator with curses 'register tape' UI)
+
+tapecalc (aka "add") is a full-screen tape editor that lets the user
+edit a calculation. It is a curses application.
+
+It's more suitable for balancing a checkbook than a spreadsheet or any
+of the various hand-calculator clones.
+
+Note: the colors of the user interface (white on blue) can't be
+configured. However, tapecalc can be tricked into running in
+monochrome, with a command like:
+
+ $ TERM=vt100 tapecalc
