Well, I'm worried about the bugs in expr and that they get fixed actually, there are more bugs I found by the way. Now Shahrokh doesn't seem to be working on it and making updates anymore. I remember I complained about something in 2009 to him and it never got fixed. I could list them all as well, but I won't make a bug report if it can't be fixed...
So, what could we do? Could we just fix it and update it? Or does he have to do it?
I remember some issues regarding its license as well, but never really understood them, maybe the license issue prevents people from updating it?
cheers

You can substitute the copysign function with this ugly thing:
[expr $f1*if($f2==0, 1, $f2/abs($f2))]

It's spelled "copysig" in expr. But I couldn't get it to work.
copysig in expr only takes one argument, whereas the c math function takes two arguments: float copysignf(float x, float y);
It returns the absolute value of x with the sign of y.
Smells like a bug to me...

hi there, I was checking the source of expr (find it attached) and saw this "copysign" function that I needed for a formula, but I can't get it to work/load.
I'm trying something like [expr copysign($f1)] and it's not happening. The expr manual page in http://yadegari.org/expr/expr.html tells about this function as well, here it is:
copysign() 1 copy sign of a number(added in version 0.4)
So it seems I'm supposedly doing the right thing... is it a bug? I'm on extended 0.42 and it says that it's expr version 0.4 when it loads.
cheers
