Is there a macro to perform calculations, so I can highlight the numbers and it can spit out the calculation
What is the format of the arithmetic expressions which you hope to copy and evaluate ?
( You would, as always, need to show us some particular examples )
In what application (or, if in a browser, on what web page(s)) are you highlighting arithmetic expressions ?
(Presumably more than "numbers", or it would not be clear what you wanted to derive from them – sum ? product ? mean ? mode ? etc etc ?)
1+2+100
(additions/summation)
Ok, but how do you want to interact with the calculation? If you just want to see the result you can do something like this:
Calculate.kmmacros (20 KB)
There's probably a more efficient way of doing that, but it works.
Don't know about more efficient, but the variable-averse amongst us can drop the first action and reference the clipboard directly:
For extra points (and added confusion later!) you can strip the macro to:
And, for funsies, in a editable text document you could do:

That first one's what I was reaching for but I don't feel too bad for being confused. I forgot the syntax and tried %Calculate%SystemClipboard% in a Set variable to text action, rather than CALCULATE(%SystemClipboard%) in a Set variable to Calculation action).
Please describe, in detail, what you're trying to do, with screenshots... or you're not going to get very far.
It's working well now, I got it on the global application palette but it's not showing up on the menu bar, any suggestions ?
Thanks, this issue has been resolved.
