Title:
  missing buttons: pi, arcsin, arccos, arctan, arsinh,...

Status in “gcalctool” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I think this is more of a feature request, but anyway:

  I was unable to convert degrees to radians (with full precision).
  First I tried to get the value of pi, but couldn't find it in either
  of the available modes. To work around this, I tried 4*arctan(1), but
  this didn't work either, because it won't accept the arctan function.

  IMHO, pi and arctan are basic features, that many people would expect
  to find on a pocket calculator.

  Thanks for the good work!
