Who ever had to deal with R and other complex tools to do some statistical work?
I found an interesting alternative that appears to be 'suckless' to me.
qstats.
I'm sending this email to the author too so we can discuss his project
with the suckless community.
What I miss the most are confidence intervals, and Tony once commented on that:

The project seems to be on its infancy, but I like the idea.
What does everyone think?
