I realize the ALL name is what HP called it for the 35s and probably other calcs, but to me it's not a good choice. ALL what? To me ALL indicates the totality of available available, not all meaningful digits... perhaps "ALL NEEDED" - but that's too long of course.

Funny I had never realized this was implemented on the35s - so you are right I have re-invented the wheel :=O
