a calc command for lazy zoners.

I would like to see a calc command in the edit box at the top of the screen where I could enter a calculation.
Like "calc 2+2" then press "send" and the answer comes back as a note.

There are times when I'd like to figure out betting strategies for the games to satisfy my obsessive compulsive need to have an even number of points (discussed elsewhere on the boards), but I'm not OCD enough to bring up calc or some other program to do the math.

So, please Mr. (or Ms.) admin satisfy my neurotic needs or I'll contact my blind lawyer brother.

Consider this your final notice!

Bob

Hmm. I'd imagine this wouldn't be that hard to implimment. I mean any programming language has built in the capability to do calculations. So as long as you didn't want real fancy functions in this, I can't see why it'd probably be a huge deal. But I'm not the one programming this, so I could just not be thinking of something.

Lol! Yeah I really would like this a lot! I mean it's neat, and would be interesting to have...
