Your point that CC belongs at ENTER is logical and made me think of re-arranging further.
@Jaco, thanks for doing the work!
I like where you're going with this. There will always be some particular things to just remember, but my mind perceives structure and logic which help finding what I am looking for quickly (it is having a hard time with the WP34S). Finding things where one might be used to on landmark calculators in general, and the DM42 in particular, is obviously a boon.
I also like that you found a way to put COMPLEX on the ENTER key, which supports the notion of it being a number entry thing.
However, was the CC key on the original 43S layout inteded to work like COMPLEX on the DM42?

Re [f] [ENTER] Im [ENTER] results in Re + j * Im in both X and Y registers.
Re [f] [ENTER] Im [EXIT] results in Re + j * Im in X register.
Apparently not - so what should be the result on the stack / screen after pressing
Re [f] [ENTER]
only?
PS: I count the WP34S as a landmark calculator in several respects, including the effort, but excluding the keyboard. Sorry, Walter, but there it is...
I know the reason why, though, and given the limitation it is not entirely unimpressive after all.
I believe in free will. Just can't help it.
