The Xess spreadsheet on Athena has been fixed for Suns (on Athena 9.2,
scrolling outside the initially displayed cell range whould lock up
the GUI). Also, Xess 6 is now available. From my announcement to users:

Xess 6.0 is now available on Athena. There is internal online help,
and help in html format in file /mit/xess_v6.0/www/xess6-help.html. We
don't plan to make this the Athena default version until IAP 2004. We
don't have a list of new features available at this time.
 
To run it now, do:
 
        add xess
        xess -ver 6.0 &
