Bug Description
If the calculator is set to Programming mode and you use the Ctrl shortcuts to switch between bases, the base in use at program exit is not saved.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Set the calculator to Programming Mode.
2. Set the base to Hexadecimal using the drop-down menu.
3. Exit the program.
4. Reopen the program.
5. Notice that it loads into "Hexadecimal" mode.
6. Press Ctrl+D to switch to decimal mode.
7. Exit the program.
8. Reopen the program - notice that the base is still set to Hexadecimal. It will remain on hexadecimal between many loads and if you only use Ctrl+B, Ctrl+D or Ctrl-H to set the base during the calculator session. The only way to get it to open into Decimal again is to open the program, click the drop-down select "Decimal", exit, and then reopen the program.
