Testing the new Junco calc command
This simply uses the Perl eval command to process an arithmetic string.
Format: calc = arithmetic expression.
After the eval is processed, the calc command is surrounded with brackets and included in the output.
(5+3)  / 2
 = 4
440 * .4
 = 176
440 * .6
 = 264
7/5
 = 1.4
Here's an intentional syntax error:
5(3
 = arithmetic string could not be processed. syntax error at (eval 76) line 1, near "5("
Need to work out the formatting kinks a little, but if I want a quick calculation, this will suffice.
