Release Notes

Changed

  • The calculator is drawn as an adding machine's tape rather than as one
    large number. The version that shipped in 1.3.0 put the answer in block
    numerals, which was reasoned from a resemblance — the clock and the pomodoro
    use them — rather than from what a calculator is. Those two show a single
    continuously changing value you glance at, and the numerals exist so it reads
    across a room; a calculated answer is read once and checked against the working
    that produced it. The numerals also cost six cells a digit, so they only ever
    appeared for answers small enough not to need them.

    The panel now has WORKING and RESULT columns like the other lists here,
    oldest entry at the top and the line you are typing at the foot, where a tape
    feeds from. Results are aligned on the decimal point. The answer forms beside
    the line as you type, and Enter keeps it.

    The row you are typing is the brightest thing in the panel with its answer in
    brass; entries behind it recede.

Added

  • A clear key for the calculator. c clears what you are typing and C
    clears the tape as well — the CE and AC of a desk calculator. Previously only
    Esc did this, listed as a secondary binding, so it was easy to miss.

Fixed

  • The calculator could show a truncated answer in two narrow-panel cases: a
    result handed to a column narrower than itself, and a result pushed back over
    the edge by the padding that aligns decimal points. A number missing its tail
    is a different number, so both now degrade to scientific notation or give up a
    place of alignment instead.
  • Calculator error phrases were too long for the column they are drawn in, so
    cannot divide by zero appeared as cannot divid….
