+From the README:
+
+This is v4.1.0 of calctool, the calculator application that was in the
+OpenWindows Deskset of the Solaris 8 operating system. Sun Microsystems Inc.
+have kindly given me permission to release it.
+
+It incorporates a multiple precision arithmetic packages based on the work
+of Professor Richard Brent, who has also kindly given me permission to make
+it available.
+
+There is a single graphics driver for Gtk2 included with this release, but
+the code is written in a portable abstracted way, so it should not be very
+difficult to add others over time.
