[Message part 2 (text/plain, inline)]

I cannot remove the number entered in calc, the number 31 on the bottom
on this video cannot get removed, and if I delete all items on stack it
remains on top. I do not know how I came into this situation and cannot
replicate the condition.

What one sees in your screencast is that you are in a three level deep
recursive edit.  Maybe Calc was prompting for something in the middle of
a command and you just went back into Calc and this got Calc into a
weird state.  Would be interesting what these outside recursive-edit
levels were doing and what would have happened if you had left them.

As far as I remember I did never see this kind of problem.  Hard to
reconstruct your problem without more information.  Did you happen to
see this again, maybe?


Thx,

Michael.
