Bug Description

Binary package hint: gcalctool

Help says
in 3.5.9.
"To show the available functions, click Fun. A popup menu displays the list of defined functions. Select a function from the menu to run that function."

However, I could not find "Fun" button.
I tried pressing Shift+F but it didn't work.

I can confirm the behaviour in Lucid is different from Karmic. gcalctool in Karmic has a Fun button to store/ edit user defined functions. This button does not exist in the version of gcalctool in Lucid.
I can also confirm that the "shift"+"f" shortcut no longer works to edit the user defined functions in Lucid.

See below for a screenshot from Karmic - note the Fun (function) button

Here is a screenshot of the Help for gcalctool in Lucid explaining how to store/ edit default functions

The documentation is very out of date. I hope to have it updated in the next week.
