I have been asked to crosscheck some address decoding on a proposed PDB design, and I have been useing the binary display of kcalc to do that sort of thing for a decade or more.
Unfortunately, TDE has excised that display capability from kcalc.
Hi Gene,
Just click on Settings / Logic Buttons to enable that feature.

That is not the display I need Mike, its been on all along.
What I am refering to are the groups of small squares, arranged in groups of 8, under the normal result window, each of which turns black when that bit on an 8 bit byte is set. They can also be clicked on, setting or unsetting the bit, with the result display above following suit. So you can construct a binary pattern, and instantly see the hexidecimal representation it represents.
This is part of the KDE kcalc, but is missing from the TDE kcalc. I've found it handier than sliced bread, bottled beer and instant sex combined at times.
Plus, the TDE version appears no place in the launch menu's where KDE makes it easily useable from the menu's, where now I must tie up a terminal session to run it.
Would it be possible to re-install the KDE version without a dependency hell tearing down the rest of the system?
I did a Google search and came up with this:
https://www.kde.org/applications/utilities/kcalc/
It doesn't seem to have the window you mention.
Are you sure that you are thinking of the right application? Are you thinking of Gcalc as in Ubuntu? I can't in a hurry find a screenshot of that. But see this:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GNOME_Calculator
Again, not as you described.
I'll do some more searching later.
