README for Urchlay's fork of hcalc ---------------------------------- This is a fork of hcalc with some fixes and enhancements. Original hcalc is by DJ Delorie, and can be found here: https://www.delorie.com/store/hcalc/ This version dates back to the late 90s, when computer monitors had lower resolution. It uses a 125x147 window, which is pretty small and hard to read on a modern display (particularly a 4K one). It's also harder to click on the tiny buttons. Sometime around 2007, Theodore Kilgore forked hcalc and made some changes: - Increase the application's window size by 2x (from 125x147 to 250x294). This helps some with modern displays. - Make the window manager's close button work. - Change the build system from make to cmake. - Add a copy of the GPL as COPYING, since the original version doesn't have it (though the site states that it's GPL). This was released as hcalc-1.2, and can be found here: https://github.com/jlec/hcalc/ Also, this is the version packaged by Gentoo. In 2024, I (B. Watson, urchlay@slackware.uk) have made many further changes. See CHANGES for the list. See the man page for full documentation (something that was lacking in the previous releases).
