 Breda, I think Sebastian has a good point here.
 I suggest that the label be changed to "x^y"
 (really x superscript y), and the tooltip be
 changed to "x to the power of displayed value".
 Agreed?

+Hi Rich,
+
+
+I agree that the button text should be changed to x^y.
+
+
+However, I think that the tooltip text should be changed to 
+"Raise displayed value to the power of the next number that you enter"
+
+or
+"Raise displayed value to the power of y"
+if you think that the first example above is too verbose.
+
+
+The current description in the help text is correct:
+"Raises the current value in the display area to the power of the next
+value that you enter."
+so I'll just change the button name when you make this change.
+
+
+Thanks for consulting me :)
+Breda.
