Square it and I get 0.49999999999999999999999999999999999

Sorry, but a possibly stupid question:
how did you all get all the digits out of the calc (or from free42)?

I know [SHOW], but this display is cleared too fast (for me).
I did not manage to do this...
Thank you for an enlightenment!

SHOW will keep showing all digits while you keep the [.] key pressed.

Also, in Free42, Copy will copy the X register to the clipboard in full precision.
