- Share common code with GO-21 SciRPN and GO-29 SciRPN. This great internal refactoring resulted in external changes including, but not limited to:
. Default display rounding method changed to Half Away From Zero, which may affect displayed results. Use Half To Even in Settings to revert to the previous behavior.

. New program source code documentation / listing view. The documentation can now be either plain Text or rich HTML, use the SwitchViews control to alternate between them.
. (Re-)add iCloud Drive support to share / import programs. Using the Files App as an intermediary to traverse the iCloud Drive folder hierarchy is recommended, fully explained in this documentation.
. Valid character encodings for GO-25 programs are ASCII, UTF-8 or UTF-16.
. Use new Appearance dark / light module (WkWebView) to render HTML throughout.
