Release notes 

Many improvements were made to the user interface. m4 Mathomatic now echoes line input for easier use. Capitalized E, I, and PI are now general variables and not the universal constants e, i, and pi. The "set negate_highest_precedence" option was removed. Polynomials are now displayed with less parentheses, looking much nicer. Error reporting was improved.

A Debian Menu System file and icon were made and a "list hexadecimal" command option was added, for displaying exact hexadecimal floating point values for constants within mathematical expressions.

10/01/10 - Changed -u option to also echo line input, so that m4 Mathomatic is easier to use.

10/02/10 - "make install" now installs the "/usr/share/pixmaps/mathomatic.xpm" X-Windows icon
           from "icons/mathomatic.xpm" for the Mathomatic entry within desktop menu systems.

           "menu/mathomatic" is an improved Debian Menu System file for Mathomatic;
           This Debian menu file is not installed by the makefile and it uses the above icon.

           The repeat command can now be shortened to 4 characters, like any other command.

10/03/10 - Updated "misc/limits.c" to additionally display all C data type sizes in bytes.

10/06/10 - Capitalized E, I, and PI are now no longer parsed as universal constants.
           Entering E, I, or PI will now result in the general variables E, I, and PI,
           unless "set no case" is previously entered.
           This change undoes version 15.2.0 Mathematica compatibility, due to kind user feedback.
           Entering e, i, or pi still gives the universal constants e#, i#, and pi#.

10/08/10 - Removed "set negate_highest_precedence" option.
           This was done for compatibility and so that less parentheses are displayed
           within expressions. Polynomials should display very nicely now, powers
           like "x^2", "y^3", and "x^y" are not parenthesized unless need be.

10/09/10 - Added "list hexadecimal" command option, which displays expressions
           exactly as stored internally in hexadecimal. No precision is lost,
           this is because the floating point values are not converted to decimal.

           Error reporting was improved.
