Calculated fields are almost ready for beta distribution.  They were 
removed from 0.3.3 because it some internal modifications were necessary 
that would make scripts from the snapshot incompatible with the new 
version.  Now that the changes have been made, the script engine should be 
very stable, and will be possible to expand the engine and improve 
functionality without breaking old scripts.
