Wcalc 2.3!   Message List  
Reply | Forward Message #97 of 114 |
Hello everyone!

I just released Wcalc 2.3, as promised. This has plenty of bugfixes
(some of which were discussed on this list), and a couple new features
that have been requested. In the GUI realm, Wcalc now also serves as a
System Service, and so adds a "Wcalc Compute" entry to the Services
menu of other applications. In the CLI realm, Wcalc's error reporting
is now more friendly, and will tell you exactly where in the line the
error occurred. Also, Wcalc now uses tab-completion in the CLI, and
can tab-complete just about anything (variables, conversion units,
commands, functions, etc.). There's plenty more for everyone, so
enjoy! I've been using *most* of these features for a while (with the
exception of the System Service), so I think the bugs should be ironed
out.

Oh, and one last thing: I finally got around to figuring out how to
compile Wcalc as a Universal Binary. I know, it's really a rather
pointless exercise (Wcalc is hardly a performance hog), but some
people look at it as some sort of important benchmark. It's not, but
for those who think it is: there! I did it! You'll note,
unfortunately, that the OSX-10.3-compatible download is a mere 888K,
while the universal binary is 2MB. That's the way these things work,
I'm afraid.

Anyway, enjoy! Let me know if you find anything unpleasant.
