Description:
 KAlgebra is a MathML-based graph calculator.
Besides it was initially mathml oriented now it
can be used by everyone with little mathematic
knowledge.

At this moment, I'd like to thank all the people
who has encouraged me to keep on KAlgebra by
packaging, translating or even using it. Lots of
thanks!

Changelog:
 * ExpressionEdit improved in many ways:
        - History added
        - Highlighting for MathML added
        - Toggling between MathML-mode and
Expression-mode enabled
        - Can tell if we are writing into a
function (operator or ci) so we can help the user
a bit (for the moment)
* GUI a bit remade, no more MathML or expression
tab, everything goes into ExpressionEdit, can
change with shift+TAB
* Variable edition dialog added. Useless but looks
nice :)
* divide operators fixed (divide, quotient, rem,
factorof)
* approx added
* Expression to MathML compiler optimized. Some
operators treated as n-ary instead of binary
* Simplification option added (F2)
* Fixed PowerPC error, now should behave fine
* Function support added
-----

* French translation added (by E. Marquez)
-----
* Calculation speed improved
* <lambda /> support
* Error detection improved
* 2D Graph optimized (improved memory management
