How do you enter a repeating decimal

Great tips Joe.

But this reminds me of a bugbear with the prime. The only way to change an improper fraction result to a mixed fraction in the CAS view is to use the propFrac function. The a b/c key only works with fractions in the Home view, where more often than not, you're working with approximate decimal values.

I'm not sure if my memory is playing tricks on me, but I could swear it wasn't always this way.
