+rCalc is a symbolic calculator for GNOME, featuring:
+
+ * Standard infix expressions - you type something like
+ 1+3*sin(pi) and it will be evaluated for you in the
+ correct order.
+ * Variables (this is where the `symbolic' comes in).
+ If you enter an expression like a=1+e^2.5, then the
+ result is stored in a variable called a. You can
+ then use it in future expressions, like b=sqrt(a*5).
+ * Furthermore, variables are stored between sessions
+ unless you delete them.
