Marcus is busy and taken by other affairs for the time being. Speaking of SW & FW development, the whole worldwide community of calculator enthusiasts seems to lack one or two or three people joining Pauli in this task. I must admit I didn't expect anything like this on a planet of 7e9 inhabitants.

Re: A few to get you started
Yes, I have. Unshifted, f- and g-shifted, as you could have seen on the picture (1, 10, 11).
What's displayed there is the menu 'EXP for exponential functions not printed on the keyboard.

Re: A few to get you started
I know that.
I meant the top 3 rows of the keyboard as soft keys, without shift, instead of the top row with shift. The thought just occurred to me, and it may very well just be a brainfart - but it made curious about the two extra rows are really needed when you have that power in terms of dynamically assignable soft keys.
Elaboration: I think what made that thought occur, is that once you can see what that key might do on the screen, my brain thinks it would like to achieve that with one click, not two.
I believe in free will. Just can't help it.
Re: A few to get you started
Well, I wouldn't have expressed it so harshly
Too much keyboard dynamics makes me nervous. Don't forget you may reassign whatever you want (s. Sect. 6).
Off topic: Ultimate flexibility is offered by a Prime-like touchscreen device, though without keyclick there (and with lower display resolution).

I need four shift colours per key, giving five functions per key and no equal sign of any type! That keeps my fellow workers from touching my 43

Re: A few to get you started
In fact much more than five functions if the shift functions (f,g,h,I,j) can work in tandem: f+key,g+key,...
f+g+key,g+h+ key,...,f+g+h+key ...
I'll leave it to your DM42 to work out the exact number .
f+g+key,g+h+ key,...,f+g+h+key ...

Re: A few to get you started
In 1985 a Soviet science fiction author Mikhail Georgievich Pukhov (1944 - 1995) wrote a novel Returning to the Earth. The novel instantly gained popularity, because it was a very first of its kind novel in USSR where an interesting space fiction plot was combined with a set of simple programs for most affordable Soviet computers - RPN programmable calculators Elektronika B3-34, MK54 and MK56. Programs where step-by-step space simulators, written by a talented author of the novel (and an engineer as well). Programs and algorithms behind them were checked by a Soviet cosmonaut Yury Nikolayevich Glazkov (1939 - 2008) who was a Flight Engineer on Soyuz 24 and Salyut 5 space missions. And for those who (like me, a schoolboy in that time), spent long evenings flying a two-seater spacecraft "Kon-Tiki" by drawing trajectories on a sheet of millimeter-paper:

Thanks to Vitasam for bringing this conversation back on-topic
There are only 10 kinds of people in the world: those who understand binary and those who do not.
