Bug Description
Binary package hint: gcalctool
On my Sharp Calculator the advantage of key [ANS] is to use a result in a following expression:
3+4=7 ; 14/ans=2
In gcalctool 5.29.91 the tooltip of button [Clr] says 'Clear display' but it also sets ans to 0. IMHO this has no advantage and is not what most users expect.
