Description

This document provides a list of implementations of RPN, RPL,
and HP calculators for other systems. You can help make it more
comprehensive by sending me additional information and/or updates.

To be included in this list, an implementation must:

o implement at least a "standard" 4-level RPN calculator.
Minor variations (e.g., 3 or 5 levels) do not preclude being
listed. Implementations that include both RPN and
algebraic modes are eligible.

o implement an RPL calculator.

o implement a "clone" (or near-clone) of any Hewlett-Packard
calculator, even if it is an algebraic-only model.

The following information is included for each implementation:

The *NAME* line contains the name of the implementation.
Implementations are listed alphabetically by name. If the
implementation emulates or approximates a specific calculator
and it is not obvious from the name which calculator is emulated,
the emulated calculator model is given in parentheses.

The *LAST* *CHANGED/VERIFIED* line contains the date that the
entry was last changed or an explict "looks ok to me" was received
by the FAQ maintainer.

The *ORIGINAL* *DISTRIBUTION* is the date (or partial date) of the
first release. It is in YYYY-MM-DD format.

The *VERSION* is the latest known version. It is probably out of
date.

The *ENVIRONMENT* is the operating environment. This is a very
high-level description: consult the documentation on the
product for any specifics.

The *ORGANIZATION* is the name of and contact information for the
implementor or current maintainer.

The *STATUS* is one of

o no longer available: Self-explanatory.
o free: The implementation is available to most people at no
charge. Even such "free" implementations may have restrictions:
consult information about the particular implementation. Where
available, information on how to obtain a copy is also listed.
o shareware: Self-explanatory.
o not free: The implementation is for sale. Contact the vendor
for specifics.

Many of the names of the implementations in this list are
trademarked. Specific trademarks are not called out.

The site [url]http://www.hp41.org[/url] also has a list.

Note: It's available for online preview at

so that you may need to add Sun's Java plugin at

This is an ongoing effort, and there's a number of limitations to
this emulator that we are well aware of, but there may be some
that we've missed. Please bear with us: all constructive feedback
will be highly appreciated.
