Good day.

Thank you for the amazing program. It helps a lot.

In engineering, we use various special naming conventions, which I do not see in Calcpad at this stage.

It would be a great help if these were added. The suggestions are:

X_infinity will display as X with subscript ∞ X_bar will display with a bar centered above the X X_dot will display with a dot centered above the X X_ddot will display with a double-dot centered above the X X_hat will display with a hat (^) centered above the X X_tilde will display with a tilde (~) center above the X X|minus will display as X superscript - X|plus will display as X superscript+ X|star will display as X*

I see the following options are available, but I think this might help in programming, and not using special keys X|o will display as X superscript o. X_prime will display as X' X_dprime will display as X'' X_tprime will display as X'''

Thank you again for your effort to make this program much better.

Hi @Itenium!

Thank you for your suggestions. It is a good idea to use aliases to implement decorations on names. Only vertical bar cannot be used, since it is already in use as a separator. But I think, underscore can be applied instead.
