Good, thanks for clarifying! > > I am also aware of dc (of course) Sure, dc is nice, but, unfortunately, lacks scientific functions (no sine, cosine, logarithms, and so forth). BTW, it was the lack of scientific capabilities in dc which led me to find out about rpncalc in the first place! ;-) > and extcalc. Extcalc also seems to be nice, but is not command-line and not RPN (wait, there's concalc... ouch! unfortunately it's not RPN... even though it seems to be a planned feature: http://extcalc-linux.sourceforge.net/features.html ). For the record, I forgot to add another feature to my desiderata: I am looking for a command-line, RPN, scientific and arbitrary precision calculator. Concalc does not appear to support arbitrary precision calculations... > > Thanks, > David Thanks to you: now I really hope that someone will soon adopt the Debian package of rpncalc! -- http://www.inventati.org/frx/progs/scripts/pdebuild-hooks.html Need some pdebuild hook scripts? .....................................................
