speedcrunch is wonderful but I had this pet peeve with it where it had a hardcoded limit of 5 digits before it drops to scientific notation. Not very useful for shell scripts and programming.

I opened an issue while it was on bitbucket, but the response was something "yeah, that's intentional".

I see they bumped it to 14 digits now.

for years I've had a custom build of it with

src/math/hmath.cpp:

- if (expd > 5) + if (expd > 25)

blessed be the open source!
