Looks quite useful.=20 One nice thing about Frink: it calculates with hex numbers with more than 32 bits. Another nice part of Frink: its unit (and measures) definition file. Worth a read, for the large number of odd units in there -- and more interestingly, for the difficulties the author had in creating a consistent unit calculator. The file contains a number of interesting comments by the author.
