Dear calc user,
|
|
|
|
See the HOWTO.INSTALL file for information on how to build and install calc.
|
|
|
|
To be sure that your version of calc is up to date, check out:
|
|
|
|
http://www.isthe.com/chongo/tech/comp/calc/calc-download.html
|
|
|
|
We are interested in any/all feedback on recent versions of calc.
|
|
In particular we would like to hear about:
|
|
|
|
* compiler warnings
|
|
* compile problems
|
|
* regression test problems (try: make check)
|
|
* special compile flags/options that you needed
|
|
* Makefile problems
|
|
* help file problems
|
|
* misc nits and typos
|
|
|
|
We would like to offer a clean compile across a wide verity of platforms,
|
|
so if you can test on several, so much the better!
|
|
|
|
If you run into problems, see the BUGS file.
|

Calc is distributed with an extensive collection of help files that
|
|
are accessible from the command line. The following assume that you
|
|
are running calc from the distribution directory or that you have
|
|
installed calc. In these examples, the ">" is the calc prompt, not
|
|
something that you type in.
|
|
|
|

|
|
