ANNOUNCE: gcalctool v5.20.1


Gcalctool is the default GNOME desktop calculator.

It has Basic, Advanced, Financial and Scientific modes. Internally it
uses multiple precision arithmetic to produce results to a high degree
of accuracy.

This release is for GNOME 2.20.X and has been generated to
fix a critical bug.

Changes since the last gcalctool version (5.20.0):

  - The XOR operation in non-arithmetic mode was doing a multiplication
    instead.

Updated String Translations (thankyou!)

  - Ignacio Casal Quinteiro - gl.po: Updated Galician Translation.

You can download this new version from:

ANNOUNCE: GENIUS 1.0.0 the "Why not!" release

To find out what Genius is, skip a few paragraphs down, or go to
http://www.jirka.org/genius.html

There are two reasons for calling this release 1.0.0.  Firstly it has been
about 10 years now since genius got started and hence deserves a 1.0 release.
Secondly I have finished a Ph.D. and am a working mathematician (UIUC), so
since I've completed my initial training, so does genius.

New in this release are several important bugfixes, several new functions
and an updated documentation.  Also I have removed the internal MPFR library
since MPFR is now fairly ubiquitous and hence the job of keeping it up to
date inside genius was too much bother.

In any case, Genius is one of the oldest GNOME projects, it has been the
original GNOME calculator before I got wild ideas about it doing absolutely
everything.  It is programmable, has a powerful language and handles many fun
features including matlab like support for matrices, and nice 2D and 3D
plotting.  The GUI version requires GNOME2 (at least glib2 if you don't want
a GUI) a recent enough GMP library and the MPFR library.  You can still use
the command line version if you prefer non-gui interface.

Here are the news in 1.0.0:

* Killed the internal MPFR.  This lib is quite ubiquitous nowdays
  and it's not worth it maintaining our own out of date copy
* Add FrobeniusNumber, GreedyAlgorithm, StirlingNumberFirst,
  StirlingNumberSecond, RayleighQuotientIteration
* IsVector, IsDiagonal, IsUpperTriangular, IsLowerTriangular, nCr (Binomial)
  are now builtin for greater speed
* Hofstadter, HarmonicNumber work over matrixes

ANNOUNCE: gcalctool v5.21.0 [possibly unstable]


Gcalctool is the default GNOME desktop calculator.

It has Basic, Advanced, Financial and Scientific modes. Internally it
uses multiple precision arithmetic to produce results to a high degree
of accuracy.

This is an early unscheduled gcalctool release and doesn't coincide with
any GNOME release. It's been provided to solicit feedback for the changes
made since the last release, some of which are fairly major. If you find
any bugs, please file gcalctool bugs in GNOME Bugzilla on them.

Thanks to Sami Pietila, Christian Persch and Rémi Cardona for their great
help here.

Changes since the last gcalctool version (5.20.0):

* Fix for bug #326938 – Display cursor in input area; allow home and
end keys. This is in arithmetic precedence mode only.

* Fix for bug #484158 – Setting Accuracy was incorrect via the 0-9 places
menu items.

* Fix for bug #439087 – Gcalctool can't handle small physic constants
like the Boltzmann constant. The number of significant places has
been increased to 99 and the number of displayable digits has been
increased to 200. The online help has been adjusted to reflect these
changes.

Note that if you have something in the gcalctool display that is
