It’s a bit ugly because of my limited options for font choices (and limited skill), but I’m a lot happier with it than any of the themes provided on the developer’s site. Although, there are other emulators like Emu42, this one does not require the original ROM image.
Free42 calculator emulator skin#
So I created my own skin for Free42 based shamelessly on PCalc’s Samurai theme. Free42 - HP-42S Emulator Free42 (v.1.4) is an open source and skinnable emulator for the HP-42S calculator. I want the functionality of the calculator, but don’t much care for trying to emulate the look of the actual physical buttons. These aren’t bad, but I’ve really taken to the more modern, flat styling used in the PCalc Samurai theme. Free42 HP-42S Calculator Simulator is a recreation of the HP-42S Scientific. The standard skins provided on the project page generally make this very clear, as most are based on photographs or scans of the HP 42s calculator itself. 42s is an iPhone port of Thomas Okkens excellent and stable Free42, a complete re-implementation of the highly praised HP-42S RPN calculator. I’ve taken to using the truly excellent PCalc for iOS for general calculation where I don’t have the HP calculator, but I also use an HP 42s calculator simulator called Free42 on Windows when I’m at the office.įree42 isn’t an emulator as it doesn’t use the actual HP roms, but it is an accurate simulator of the calculator. I have an HP 35s which is supposed to be at my desk at the office, but is currently at home. Over the last few years I’ve taken to using RPN for general calculations instead of the more common algebraic notation.
