v13i082: Patch for GNU Emacs Calc, version 1.02 -> 1.03

Tue Jul 3 10:03:49 AEST 1990
Posting-number: Volume 13, Issue 82
Submitted-by: daveg at csvax.caltech.edu (David Gillespie)
Archive-name: gmcalc/patch02
The following patches convert Calc version 1.02 into Calc
version 1.03. To apply them automatically with Patch v2.0,
first cd into your Calc distribution directory, then execute
"patch -p0 <calc.patch", where "calc.patch" is the name of this file.
You will want to re-byte-compile both parts, and re-format the
manual, as explained in the INSTALL file.
These patches do not cover the README and INSTALL files. The
INSTALL file is just a copy of the "Installation" chapter of
calc.texinfo, which is updated by this patch. Note that some
patches will add to the list of "autoload" commands recommended
in that chapter.
Patches and complete tar files are also available from anonymous FTP
on csvax.caltech.edu, in the "pub" subdirectory.
Enjoy!

+ with a zero prefix argument, it will be interpreted as @samp{[2*a]}.
+
+ If you give a positive numeric prefix argument @var{n}, then each line

To test your installation of Calc, start a fresh Emacs and type @kbd{M-#}
to make sure the autoload commands and key bindings work. Now, type
@kbd{i} to make sure Calc can find its Info documentation. Press @kbd{q}
! to exit the Info system. Type @kbd{20 S} to compute the sine of
! 20 degrees; this will test the autoloading of the extensions module.
! The result should be 0.342020143326. Finally, press @kbd{M-#} again to
! make sure the Calculator can exit.
