Changes in GS-Calc 24.2 include:

1. The Help has been fully overhauled: the old Windows \*.chm file has  
been replaced by a set of HTML pages viewable in your default browser.  
The Help now includes descriptions of all built-in functions  
(formulas). The plain-text “description” field in the ‘Composer’ dialog  
has been replaced by a Help button that displays more detailed, far  
more readable, context-sensitive function specifications and examples  
in a browser.  
The new HTML Help is also available online:  
[GS-Calc Help Index](https://citadel5.com/help/gscalc)  
and as PDF:  
[https://citadel5.com/help/gscalc\_help.pdf](https://citadel5.com/help/gscalc_help.pdf)

2. This update also fixes a bug (or non-standard behavior) occurring  
when negative numbers are used in the CEILING.MATH() and FLOOR.MATH()  
functions. The “mode” parameter in both functions was changing  
the rounding method for negative numbers when mode \<= 0, whereas  
the standardized behavior is that the “switch” occurs at mode = 0.
