Hi FlameDuck :-)
I want to write a scientific calculator to work planitary orbital predictions.
I need to be able to input real distances in meters and velocities in fractions of a meter per second.
Results are required to be extremely accurate at each step to avoid errors accumulating.
Cosines must be correct to millionths of a degree.
I can't afford Mathmatica so I want to write my own.
The great thing about blitz is that it makes application creation quick and easy.
The drawback is that it can't do two mission-critcal things:
detect all keypresses in text gadgets and do accurate numbers.
