available to the input calculator through the “func” function list
button.  Entries made in the main calculator are separate from the

minutes by selecting the value and using the scroll arrows and then
selecting AM or PM.

Template & Variable Settings

Templates contain two groups of settings, one for the template itself
and one for each variable within the template.  Each template
maintains its own settings, as does each variable of a template.  The
settings are reached via the Options menu from within the template.

Template Preferences

Each of these settings refer to the currently selected template.

operations to be done in either
