Hi there. I'm Haryanto, MT from Indonesia.

When I look for portable high precision calculator I found this SpeedCrunch calculator at this address:

http://speedcrunch.org/en/index.html

They have 2 version: installed and portable, and for installed version they provide the program for 3 OS: Windows, Macintosh and Linux.

Maybe you can put the portable version into the list because it hasn't in the list yet.

Thank you.[/b]

i love the layout of this. nice features too. but the 'stack' isn't very usable. too bad it's not RPN. ~sigh~

Sometimes, it takes a while for some potentially qualified apps to make it on the list. An RPN calculator, Free42 (no emulator, no ROM images), which I submitted (and you discussed) is still waiting for posting approval.

yes, i remember that one. it's got a tiny stack though, which keeps me from using it. i'm used to using my HP 48G, but i forgot to bring it with me when i moved. still looking for a good replacement. my favourite is definitely calculator.NET, but i don't have .NET installed at the moment so i can't use it...

still looking. i'll find it some day!

Try AllerCalc, after I started to use it, all other seem so unergonomic...

AllerCalc saves settings to the registry. Is there some standard way to prevent that, or did you portabilize it somehow?

It seems like the best I've seen.

JauntePE is probably the best for this task.

AllerCalc looks great, and you're right, it's very ergonomic. lots and lots of options in there too. but it's not RPN either :(

i just can't help it. once you go RPN, you never go back!

I didn't know that people use Ɓukasiewicz's notation. It was meant for machines. :P
I'll try though. ;)

here is a tiny, portable RPN Calculator, xCalc
(http://www.tordivel.no/xcalc/)

It seems to be about 15 digits precision, and settings are saved in xcalc.dat

Current Version is 2.9.1
