You may get a bit disappointed: SES is a very primitive spreadsheet, so
some of the features you're asking for simply don't exist.

Not sure what you mean by "name". You can set its value to "Date" (a
string) or to `Date' (a symbol), so that's what will be printed at
that spot. Depending on whether you use a string or a symbol, it will
either be right aligned or left-aligned, so, the answer to your question
may be:
' D a t e RET
> - name cell A1 `Expense' and left align it?
That would then be:
" E x p e n s e RET

No, SES doesn't handle multi-line cells.

There's no such automatic facility in SES. You'll have to define
a corresponding function for that.

There's no "auto-fit" feature.
Numbers are right-aligned, so the alignment might just work. Note that
the alignment is fairly naive, e.g. it doesn't know how to align on the
decimal ".".

Something like:
= (apply 'ses+ (ses-range A2 A20)) RET
