ANNOUNCE: gcalctool - v4.2.83

[Rich Burridge <Rich Burridge Sun COM>]

Application
===========

gcalctool


Description
===========

gcalctool is the desktop calculator that has been proposed for GNOME 2.4.
It has Basic, Financial and Scientific modes. Internally it uses multiple
precision arithmetic to produce results to a high degree of accuracy.

We recently asked for testers on the desktop-devel mailing list, and have
fixed the bugs that users have found, and made all the changes that were
suggested.

We now believe that gcalctool is close to being equivalent to the version we
would like to include with GNOME 2.4, so we are looking for more testers to
give it a good workover.


**IMPORTANT NOTE TO TRANSLATORS**

The online help is now completed and has had editorial feedback.
It is now ready to be translated to other locales. Thanks!
