Bugs
Known bugs:The keyboard is sometimes a little sensitive. I've set the delay before repeat really low, so you may occasionally have to hit a toggle key more than once to get the proper effect. If this really bothers you, you can change the keyboard settings by pressing the backslash key.
There's some strange bugs that creep in when editing formulas. I ought to fix this. Restarting the program usually helps.
If you feed it the program a nonsense formula, especially with nonexistent variables, the program may or may not catch it. This seems to be just about the only thing that I've found that will crash the program. I'll fix this eventually.
On my Dell Laptop at school the colon key, shift+F12, shift+arrows (and others?) don't seem to work when the program is running. I'm not sure what the problem is, but I don't think this is on my end.
Other than the above, there's lots of things that work ok, but need to be improved. I just haven't gotten around to them yet.
