Thanks! Corrected.

A couple of minor issues.

I would like to have implemented the "degree" (Alt+176) ° character in one of the alpha menus.

In the unit conversion menu, volume section, you have l -> qt conversion. This should probably be specified as a UK qt as the value is 1,135 litres/quart. The US qt is 0,946 litres.

This is easy: turn to lower case and enter [f] [E] o (the first two for switching to superscript).

In 11 years, noone has missed that. Now a Norwegian wants the US qt. Please allow me waiting for more requests before opening a new menu view.

Thanks for your quick reply.

Heh, I don't *need* the US qt conversion, rather than just mentioned that the already in-there conversion probably could benefit of being specified.
Or, well - most cooking recipes on YT are by americans, and they use those fuzzy units like "cups" and (US) qt's.

(Imagine if we had a German metre, a Norwegian metre and or perhaps an Uzbek metre as well 🙃)

AFAIK, they use table spoons, too. Originally, I didn't want to create a kitchen calculator but ... ;)

Doesn't work when put in as a codeline in program.
Also, "SNAP" while in P/R code menu won't make a snapshot, but rather put "SNAP" as a codeline in program.

Thanks for reporting. This is a bug. Will be filed in GitLab.

Regarding SNAP, well, you have to decide. We found it more beneficial being able to insert SNAP in a program than taking a snapshot of a static code. YMMV but we decided. 8-)

Thanks again for your quick reply.

In my (excellent, if I may say so myself) Relative Humidity program, I currently make do with the "sunstar symbol" found in blueshift . in AIM, next to @ symbol.

People having excellent or great programs are invited to publish them here. I vote for a separate thread 'WP43 programs and routines'.

Fixed meanwhile by Didier (merci!). Will be working in next release.
