18* Moved the POW and SQR operations near the operators.
19* Rewritten some units formula by using scientific notation.
20* Improved precision of parsec unit conversion formula.
21* Fixed bug when calculator was closed with statistics dialog open.
22* Do not append decimal separator if "ERROR" messages are printed.
23* Improve code readability by using SetDlgItemText and GetDlgItemText functions
24* Colours are now declared though RGB() macro.
25* Remove call to _tcslen() and use return value of GetDlgItemText() where possible.

28* Removed safe DS_SHELLFONT declaration.
29
301.11 (20090404)
31=======================
32* Updated translations (thanks to the friends at ReactOS' community).
33* Added DS_SHELLFONT to some dialogs into various translations (sometimes it was specified, sometimes it was not).
34* Added support for newer conversion units.
35* Fixed mistake into english translation (lenghts -> lengths).
36* Now decimal and thousand separators can be also read directly from registry (NT only, not 9x/ME).
37* Fixed bug when pressing an operator twice (like '1++2=' caused error).
38* Now unary operators and constant generators won't break RPN queue.
39
401.10 (20080813)
41=======================
42* Added Norvegian and Korean translations.
43* Fixed Polish and Slovak translations.
44* Fixed percent mode.
45* Fixed some unsignaled overflow errors.
46* Fixed conversion method, now scientific notation is recognized too.
47* Added compilation for UNICODE executables.
48* Plain MINGW toolchain does not support wWinMain function, so I switched to old WinMain if it is not under ReactOS' build tree.
49* Detect error if UNICODE version is launched into Win9x (avoid the lock).
50
511.09 (20080630)
52=======================
53* Fixed bug with Conversion function: "Category" type must be found like "from" and "to" because the combobox sorts its items alphabetically.
54* Fixed bug with memory function and GNU multi-precision libraries: the memory must be initialized to zero when the calculator starts, otherwise "MP" will crash.
55* Fixed bug when closing an expression with right parentheses.
56
571.08 (20080520)
58=======================
59* Added macro DISABLE_HTMLHELP_SUPPORT for disabling the compilation of htmlhelp support.
60* Added RSH operator.
61* It is possible to change the numeric base (hex/oct/bin/dec) during a calculation.
62* Conversion layout has been implemented (HTML Help documentation is fixed too).
63* Corrected precision underflow/overflow when working with trigonometric functions.
64* cbrt() function is not used if compiling into ReactOS build system.
65* Resources are moved into /res directory.
66* Added new (partial) support for other languages: bulgarian, spanish, german, dutch, polish, russian, slovak, ukrainian.
67* Decimal precision of number with standard layout has been limited to 16 digits because the output display is smaller here (GMP version only).
68* Fixed buffer overflow with function update_lcd_display().
69* The decimal point is now preserved when switching to temporary scientific notation.
70* The content of the output display is now cleared before doing a paste from clipboard.
71* The position of the calculator on the screen is kept when switching between various working layouts (standard/conversion/scientific).
72
731.07 (20071219)
74=======================
75* Added support for GNU multi-precision libraries. LibGMP and LibMPFR are required for compiling ReactOS Calc with big number support.
76* When calculating the standard deviation, the population can be 'n' or 'n-1' as the true Microsoft Calculator does.
77* Unified language support: just one executable for all.
78* Fixed type bug into CopyMemToClipboard() when compiled with WideChar support.
79* The code for handling the memory functions has been simplified and now it calls directly the RPN engine.
80* Fixed bug into statistical window, when uploading numbers with different bases.
81* Fixed bug into integer limitation: now if the selection changes on QWORD, DWORD, WORD or BYTE, then the result is modified immediately.
82* Fixed bug signaled by remi-aldo about a the precision issue.
83* Fixed bug into shortcuts from keyboard: modulo shortcut was missing.
84* Implemented coloured buttons.
85* ReactOS Calc has been compiled for working with x86-64 (still untested on the real hardware).
86
871.06 (20070518)
88=======================
89* The decimal separator is copied into the clipboard, but only if it has been typed by the user.
90* Now the [+/-] button can change the sign of any number into the output display.
91* Added italian translation of the help file.
92
931.05 (20070503)
94=======================
95* Fixed bug when the following input keys are pressed: [0] [.] [+/-] and another number, then the dot and the sign were lost.
96* The ERROR message at division by zero is displayed again.
97* [Exp] button won't work if the output display is zero (0e+100 is always zero).
98* Now [.] can start a number directly: if it is pressed when display is empty then "0." is pushed automatically.
99
1001.04 (20070430)
101=======================
102* Fixed a bug when zero is the first number entered.
103* The change of the sign +/- doesn't work if the display is empty or zero.
104* Added logical operators into decimal mode (obviously, only the integer part is processed).
105* Fixed decimal precision to highest possible resolution.
106* Decimal point and thousand separator are now regional dependant.
107* Added memory subtraction and memory swap commands.
108* Added 2*PI constant (generated by "inv"+"pi").
109* Added Help popups for calculator functions.
110* Added User's manual and Help file support.
111* Now the PASTE menu command is disabled if the clipboard doesn't store good data.
112* Fixed bug with BACK button.
113* Fixed ":q" command from clipboard to the 'cancel' button.
114

116=======================
117* Added double-click check on statistic window.
118* Fixed focus selection when switching from statistic window with RET button.
119* EQUAL button will now reduce a number entered with exponential notation (if it's possible).
120* Version number was not updated to 1.02 in previous version.
121
1221.02 (20070402)
123=======================
124* Fixed a "copy-paste" error into hyperbolic functions.
125* Now context menu is enabled only when child controls are clicked.
126
1271.01 (20070331)
128=======================
129* Fixed english translation for "Radians" and "Gradians".
130* Corrected conversion between radians and gradians angles.
131* Added work-around for catching keys without the keyboard hook (selectable at compile time).
132* The version number of the programme has been moved from the resource files to ABOUT.C.
133* "DOT" function can be used for starting a number (integer part will be zero).
134* Added repeat function.
135* If the number is greater than maximum resolution, it will be displayed with exponential notation.
136* Removed mouse and keyboard focuses from displayed buttons.
137* Added normal and small icons.
