freebsd-ports/deskutils/sliderule/pkg-descr

This is the part of X11R3's xcalc(1) utility that features a historic
Slide Rule.  This is not taken to be too serious, it's merely a little
fun project for those people who have learned their basics of mathemat-
ics and logarithms by using such a nice ``pocket calculator''.

The original xcalc is from John Bradley, and Mark Rosenstein.  A number
of bugs and inaccuracies fixed by Joerg Wunsch.
This is the `sliderule' part of X11R3's xcalc(1) utility. Don't take it too seriously, that's rather a fun project only. :) It portlints well, so i hope it's okay... I noticed that the FreeBSD LOCAL_PORTS still reference freefall.freebsd.org, so did i -- shouldn't all this be converted to hub.freebsd.org? (I've put the distfile over there, at least. freefall doesn't offer anon ftp at all.) 1997-08-04 20:44:16 +00:00			`This is the part of X11R3's xcalc(1) utility that features a historic`
