The linux users among you (or those with wsl2 on Windows 11) might be interested to know that I've just pushed the latest updates to the unstable branch of x11-calc.
The changes include the addition of the HP10, HP25, HP33E, HP38E, and the renaming of some of the existing models to add the 'C' suffix. Where the executable file name has been changed this will also change the name of the file used to save the calculator state. Apologies for the breaking change. Renaming the existing (.dat) file solves the problem.
The HP10 does support printing but it prints to standard output so the output is shown on the console window, which isn't as pretty as a graphical display but has the advantage that it allows the output to be redirected to a file.
The stable branch will be updated when I've have finished tiding up the code so it will compile on VAX/VMS and True64 UNIX and I'm happy everything still works!
I'd like to take the opportunity to say a huge "Thank You" to teenix for letting me have a copy of his ROM for the HP10 and patiently explaining how printing is supposed to work (it was a lot stranger than I thought!).
