xcalc is useless. I was thinking of building a terminal based calculator for dsl that would process C style equations on a line by line basis and have support for user variables. Does something like this already exist?

not sure whether to do it in C (fun) or C++ (easy).

--------------
System:
eTower 566.12, 32MB RAM, 7GB HD, 200MB swap, 1x USB v.1, Intel 810GFX, Intel 810 Audio.
Recompiled so far: Pretty much everything. I think I'll have to do a remaster to cut the growing bloat off my system.

I found a mind reader...

I'll build a front end and add binary/octal support. Maybe even arbitary length numbers with GMP Bignum.

I had been hoping to use a hack I had worked out using a separater operator stack for precedence...it would work but the code would have been just too cryptic and wouldn't handle syntax errors well. meh
