pearCalc is a freeware calculator, application-launcher and text replacement tool. pearCalc's main window contains just a text field, therefore it uses almost no space on the screen. Furthermore it provides its capabilities via the services-menu to other applications that support services.

As calculator it provides a broad range of operations (i.e. +, -, *, /, sin, cos, tan, log, %, mod, ^, sqrt ...). Of course it also handles parenthesis correctly.

The application-launcher function lets you launch applications simply by entering an application name. pearCalc can also launch web pages with your favorite browser and generate new emails with your favorite email-app. Furthermore, pearCalc can also be used as a text replacement tool in all text editors that support services.

What's New:
Bugfix: Missing opening or closing braces in the expression should no longer lock up pearCalc.
Optimised the scanning process for applications (now done in background immediatly after startup). As an effect response-time of pearCalc after unidentifiable entries should be much better.
