        Release:  V1.5 for BeOS, 1 Jan 1999
Compatibility:  R3/R4
       Location:  contrib/utilities
   Description:  CLI-based scientific/programmer calculator.
            Notes:  Now includes precompiled binaries.

  UnixCalc is a command line calculator which can evaluate algebraic
equations and uses non-volatile history lists to store unlimited
equations, calculated results, and arbitrarily-named variables.  There
are several numerical display modes which include floating point,
scientific, and engineering notation.  The scientific mode supports
imaginary numbers for most functions.  Standard functions
(+,-,*,/,Sqrt,^) are accurate to more than 50 digits.  Based numbers
(2 to 16) are also supported along with all the standard logical
operators (see table below).

Some additional features are:
   o imaginary numbers and functions
   o unlimited named variables (up to 16 characters long)
   o automatic history logging of both equations and results
   o full scientific, transcendental, power, and logarithmic operations
   o programmer functions like and, or, shift, rotate, etc., on 172-bits!
   o choice of radian, degree, or gradian angle measurements
   o from 8 to 52 digits
   o numbers from -1E9999 to 1E9999
   o exact decimal number representation
   o convenience functions like square and cube roots, reciprocal, etc.
   o persistant variables, equations, and state
