[Bruce Dubbs]

New minor version.

[Bruce Dubbs]

Qalculate! version 4.6 (library and CLI) Latest

Changes:

• Do not automatically by default set prefix higher than kilo for meter, gram, higher than 1 (no prefix) for second and litre, or lower than 1 for byte and bit
• Do not use recently introduced SI prefixes (R, Q, r, q) automatically by default
• Do not set automatic prefix if resulting multiplier is less than 1 or greater than 1000, with some exceptions (e.g. km)
• Default prefix unit property (use for gram, and few other units, instead of hard coded value)
• Option to change symbols used for output of digits 10 and 11 in duodecimal numbers (use A and B as default digits)
• Allow the same variable left and right of the equals sign (e.g. var=var+2), in variable assignment without colon, if the variable exists and the previous value is known
• Use Unicode symbol for minus in scientific e notation
• Do not show multiplier if exactly 1, in HTML output of scientific notation
• Prefer Nm (torque) over J when the result is a vector with three components
• Add "amp" abbreviation to ampere unit, and "thou" name for 1/1000 in (mil)
• More robust and consistent default language detection on Windows
• Fix unit order for Nm and Ws
• Fix conversion from ounce (interpreted as fluid ounce) to litre with prefix
• Fix automatic reactivation of global object after deletion of conflicting object
• Fix parsing of scientific e notation when the number is extremely large and exponentiation fails because of floating point overflow
• Fixes for output of scientific notation using number bases other than decimal
• Fix prefix selection in denominator when multiplier is higher than the value of the largest prefix
• Fix segfault in multisolve()
• Don't show anything on empty input
• Support "help [OPTION]" and "help set [OPTION]" command to display description for a single set option
• Minor bug fixes and feature enhancements
