[Coco] Hex calculator (off topic)

[Chester A Patterson]

Nothing wrong with wincalc EXCEPT that I can't afford a rugged plant
floor laptop! I gotta work sometimes with rubber boots and a heavy
raincoat INSIDE a plant. It can get awfully nasty. I would prefer to use
a calculator in a plastic bag. If it dies, not so much lost. All just to
save time. And look smart to the customers.

What's wrong with the calculator included in Windows? Its 'scientific
mode'
it can handle binary, octal, hexadecimal numbers and all kinds of
boolean operations!
