Dice rolling solution.

Overview

Xiphoid Dice Roller is a simple application that rolls dice using the D&D "dice string" standard; e.g. "1d4+1", "2d10", "1d%", etc. You can use standard mathematical operations on dice rolls. Dice are represented as follows: "<number of dice>d<number of sides on dice>". There is a special value that can be used in the "number of sides on dice": a percent sign ("%") represents 100. You can also omit the "number of dice"; it defaults to 1.

It would have been 2 on features, but the parser option (unlike filling in 3 fields) was done well. However, none of the die buttons worked on my Mac. Now, to get picky: The interface is too big. Single results should be in a text box. The paper tape should probably be like the one in calculator.app, separate, resizable, and with a clear button. Otherwise, it is what it should be: simple, clean, and efficient. Playability and Graphics/Sound are not applicable fields. If there's a mod out there reading this, you need to have a NA response to your category ratings!
