For those who are not aware of Lorrinda's background she created dc, bc, eqn and worked on the Writer's Work Bench (GNU style today).

I use 'bc' every single day! Her work lives on. That's the best any of us can hope for. RIP Lorrinda Cherry. -Dave -- Dave McGuire, AK4HZ New Kensington, PA

Thank you for sharing this. I saw one article discuss her, and I hope to see more. On Sun, Feb 20, 2022, 10:56 AM Neil Cherry via vcf-midatlantic < vcf-midatlantic@lists.vcfed.org> wrote:
