Release Notes: 

Release 0.3.0.1 includes the following enhancements:

  • Results are now shown within the formula itself after an equals sign. For instance, "x = " will display the value of x.
  • Results can be displayed on the same line as a variable is defined. Eg: "x := 1 + 1 =".
  • Improved support for units of measure. For instance, common abbreviations are new pre-defined, and units can be displayed in one of three unit systems (SI, CGS, US)
  • A series of CompPad expressions can be imported from a text file. This can be used to pre-define constants, units, or functions that are used frequently.
  • Double-braces can be used to create complex variable names. For instance, "{{ vec {x sub 2 sup 3 } }} = 2"
  • plotxy arguments can now contain units of measure.
  • Formulas in tables are now evaluated.
  • Evaluation of formulas can be prevented by enclosing entire expression in braces. "{this * formula / is - not + evaluated }"
  • Comments using %% are parsed correctly.
