The motivation for writing CalDims was to have an easy to use calculation tool that has support for units.

The calculator's features

  • Support for user defined basic units and derrived units
  • user defined functions
  • work sheets can be modified/saved via shell
  • (1/3)*3 == 1 (No rounding errors)
  • built-in feature to simplify units
  • easy unit-conversion

Planned features for future releases

  • More datatypes (boolean, string)
  • a GUI
  • Undo/Redo

Releases

Currently there is a pre-release at http://m13s07.vlinux.de/darcs/CalDims/CalDims-preview.tar.gz
