To this day, I still use a linux desktop simulator for the HP-41CX calculator!

The original website seems now offline:

But the code is still available:

I took a look at nonpareil, and decided to give it a try. There were a few dependencies that weren't listed, and I had to change wasm.h to wasm_y.h in three files, then it wouldn't build on an nfs mounted filesystem because it was trying to run an executable (str2png). Eventually I got it installed and working. Very cool!

I use the "realcalc" Android app. I first purchased it for PalmOS sometime around 1999. It's an absolutely fantastic emulator. I use Free42 on my iPad.

For the desktop, bc works fine for me.
