- The ddddttttccccaaaallllcccc utility is a calculator for use within the CDE.
- It provides an easy-to-use interface designed to give access
- to common arithmetic and financial calculations.
-
- The calculator is designed to operate in much the same way
- as many hand-held calculators. It provides three modes of
- operation: scientific, financial, and logical. The default
- operation is scientific, but with the easy-to-use GUI,
- changing to the modes of operation is easy. When the
- operation mode is changed, a number of the keys change for
- the new operations.
-
- OOOOPPPPTTTTIIIIOOOONNNNSSSS
- The ddddttttccccaaaallllcccc utility defines a number of command-line options
- that allow the user to configure how the calculator displays
- itself. Command-line options have a higher precedence than
- resources. By using command-line options a user can
- override anything specified in a resource file.
-
- ----aaaa <_a_c_c_u_r_a_c_y> This is the initial number of digits
- displayed after the numeric point. This
- value must be in the range 0 to 9. The
- default value is 2.
-
- ----mmmm <_m_o_d_e> This determines which mode the calculator
- will display itself in. The possible
- values for <_m_o_d_e> are: scientific,
- financial, or logical. Scientific is the
- default mode. Some of the calculator keys
- change operations when the calculator's
- mode is changed.
-
- ----bbbb <_n_u_m_e_r_i_c__b_a_s_e>
- This determines which numeric base the
- calculator will use when it does
- calculations. There are four bases the
- calculator supports: binary (base 2),
- octal (base 8), decimal (base 10), or
- hexadecimal (base 16). The possible
- values for <_n_u_m_e_r_i_c__b_a_s_e> are: binary,
- octal, decimal, or hexadecimal. The
- default is decimal.

-
- ----nnnnoooottttaaaattttiiiioooonnnn <_d_i_s_p_l_a_y__n_o_t_a_t_i_o_n>
- This determines how the answers are to be
- displayed on the calculator. The possible
- values for <_d_i_s_p_l_a_y__n_o_t_a_t_i_o_n> are:
- scientific, engineering, or fixed. The
- default is fixed.
-
- ----ttttrrrriiiigggg <_t_r_i_g_o_n_o_m_e_t_r_i_c__t_y_p_e>
- This determines how answers are presented
- when the calculator is in scientific mode.
- The possible values for
- <_t_r_i_g_o_n_o_m_e_t_r_i_c__t_y_p_e> are: degrees,
- radians, or gradients. The default is
- degrees.
-
- ----nnnnoooo____mmmmeeeennnnuuuu____bbbbaaaarrrr This option makes the calculator come up
- with no menubar.
-
- ----sssseeeessssssssiiiioooonnnn <_s_e_s_s_i_o_n__f_i_l_e>
- The dtcalc utility runs with the session
- file specified in the _s_e_s_s_i_o_n__f_i_l_e
- parameter. Session files are generated as
- a dtcalc session shuts down.
-
- ----???? This prints out the usage message.

- The calculator supports a number of resources which make it
- much more configurable. Following is the list of supported
- resources and their default values.
