Keying value in VariablesMenu should execute if not in a program #420
Comments
|
Reported by @spiff72 as follows: Another usage question... On my other RPL calculators, I am accustomed to being able to create a program that can execute right from the variable menu. Simple example: Now while in the variable menu, MMIN is visible. To run it, I can type in 50 ENTER However, I am also accustomed to the following method of running the same program: Can this behavior change to replicate behavior of a 50g (or even newRPL, which behaves the same way)? This saves a keystroke (the ENTER key). |

When text editing is in direct mode (e.g. outside of a program), directly execute the entries in the variable menu instead of appending them to the command line Also fixed an issue where the editor would not jump to the cursor position when inserting a variable command.

This release implements the last remaining user-oriented RPL data type, unit objects. However, unit operations are not implemented yet. There is no unit arithmetic nor unit conversions yet. New features: - Multi-line rendering of result level (#455) - Render graphic objects in graphical rendering mode (#453) - DM32 documentation is now distinct from DM42 (#450) - Improvements to `FIX` rounding (#445, #446) - Save editor state when using EXIT (#439) - Add images in web documentation, skip them in on-line help (#438) - Fixed-base based numbers now enabled on DB50X (#432) - `Integrate` automatically enables approximations (#415) - New `MinimumSignificantDigits` (`DIG`) setting (#412) - Add `CursorBlinkRate` setting (#407) - Unit objects and menus, but no arithmetic or conversions yet (#16) Bug fixes: - Graphical mode for stack rendering (still showing as "grey" intentionally) - Computation of complex log / power when not in radians (#452) - Merge the two "Help" sections in the documentation (#451) - Do not emit error for `"ABC" 5 *` with `NumericResults` on (#447) - Allow `PowerOff` and `Save` to work in Alpha mode (#444) - Show `Help` as the command name when help topic not found (#440) - Fixing in ordering of command-line history (#439) - Avoid `Invalid digit for base` error for `1E6` (#422) - Show correct symbol, `∡`, for Alpha-Shift-EEX (#421) - Update menus when a setting changes (#416) Improvements: - Add `[]` inserter in matrix menu (#456) - Leave one pixel blank on right of stack (#454) - Machine-specific variations in the documentation (#450) - Many minor changes and corrections in documentation - Improvement to storytelling file (#448) - Link DB48X YouTube playlist from documentation - Update acknowledgements section - Improve rendering of shift keys in built-in help (#437) - Increase maximum size for big numbers (#426) - Accept `LogGamma` as alternative spelling for `lgamma` (#426) - Directly execute menu functions in direct mode (#420) - Add `Authors` section in documentation (#419) - Make on-line help accessible on GitHub and GitLab (#418) - Rename simulator to `db48x` (#417) - Add `∫` to `IntegrationMenu` entries (#414) Signed-off-by: Christophe de Dinechin <christophe@dinechin.org>
