RE: wp34s emulator - prgm constant split one digit per line
As Dieter points out, this is as designed. SDL/SDR are extremely fast operations as there are no floating point operations involved.

There are some interesting effects in integer mode. As the 34S stands, digits are evaluated in the current integer mode settings. Thus, for example, 10 is always the current base (if the word size is sufficient). If the number were entered as a single step, should it automatically change base when the calculator does? Should it honour the current sign mode and word length? If so, what happens when the word is shortened and then lengthened again?

Similar things happen for fractions and H.MS entry, although they aren't as convoluted being display modes.
