#3489: Calculate activity results are inaccessible

In build 581, one can see calculation results, but cannot use them for
further calculation, nor cut and paste them.
Example: type "1+1" and press enter. The calculator display/input-text-
box blanks (rather than becoming "2"), and "1+1 =2" appears in the
history. Clicking on history puts "1+1" back in the display. One does
not appear to be able to select text (eg, "2") in the history for copy-
and-paste. One does not seem able to get "2" into the display without
retyping it.
Impact: Can't get results out of the calculator (eg, to Write). Things
like "1+1" with low precidence operators, need to be () bracketed if you
want to append, for example, "*5". Incrementally extended equations never
compact, and so can grow annoyingly wide.
Suggested fix: Don't blank the display upon enter. Instead, leave the
result there.
