calc-2.el - UX Tweaks for the GNU Emacs Calculator

calc-2 provides various user experience improvements for the GNU Emacs Calculator.

Features

• Documentation strings for Calc functions and commands.

  After pressing x (calc-execute-extended-command) in a Calc buffer with a package like marginalia installed, you can readily see documentation for each command.

• completing-read-multiple interface for reading unit expressions with annotations.

  Calc provides a command to view the units table, but with calc-2 you get a minibuffer prompt with completion and annotations when using calc-convert-units and similar commands.

Installation

Using elpaca and elpaca-use-package-mode:

(use-package calc-2
  :ensure ( calc-2 :type git :host github :repo "nick4f42/calc-2.el")
  :demand t
  :config
  (calc-2-minor-mode))

Planned Features

• completing-read interface for storing and recalling Calc variables
• Completion at point in algebraic entry
• Transient interface for Calc commands
