Hi David,

thanks for your fine proposal, looks promising! I just wonder if you can 
squeeze all types of graphs/functions into the same system. With polar 
coordinates one might wish to have a corresponding grid layout if you know 
what I mean (radial). This could be an addition to the coordinate systems you 
provide (I would name them after quadrants maybe).

The main tool bar could also bear buttons for printing/export: Teachers are 
gratefull when they can plot/print graphs in a fixed ratio (1 unit = 1 cm).

Last point: Entering function terms could be eased by providing allowed 
operators/variables in a toolbox. On the other hand. Abakus strenghts is to 
leave away the buttons kcalc has.

Regards
Ralf
