[43S] Just to have it on the new forum, too

Thanks for your kind words.
Do you know you won't reach any popular trig or inverse or log or antilog any faster by that? The unshifted menu lines of [TRIG] and [LOG] will look like \(sin, arcsin, cos, arccos, tan, arctan\) , and \(ln, e^{x}, lg, 10^{x}, x^{3}, log_{x}y\) , respectively. So once e.g. [TRIG] is called, COS is just one keystroke away.

I disagree: I love open space -- space that's not necessary to be populated.
