Thats sounds like a good idea... Just check to see if there are any params sent or not Script is looking awesome so far

Thats cool!

P.S. Off Topic: What version of messenger are you using? It dosn't look like mine.

Looks like WLM with the Vista skin and a background set

Sorry to be off-topic, but wouldn't care to share your messenger skin or background in This Screenshot?

Also, by the way SpunkyLoveMuff your websites download for PSM+ is wrong, it links to another script.

Yay great to see a pre-release, i love it <3

Can't wait for the final




Spleak is smart

Sweet pre-release! This (like all your other work) is very professional, Mattike!

In the QC, I can't quite use the letters (A-F) for hex, because the calculator doesn't parse them. Also, it might be better to convert expressions before making the calculations in other bases (so that 10+10 in binary = 100; maybe split modes to "input" and "output"). And degrees, radians and grads!

Again, super script!

Hmm... never thought about that. That will indeed make things easier.
And maybe, I can make '/calc pref' to open the preferences and '/calc abt' to open the about window...
That way, I only have one command left.

I am aware of this. They were just meant to note that you will be able to use hexadecimal values, but not by simply typing them. I'll make the script to use special functions to let the user specify what mode should be used. For example, I'll make Hex(FF) to result in 255, so you can calculate with different modes. (e.g.: substracting hexadecimal numbers from binary numbers and returning the octal result)

Yes yes, I'll look for that.

do as JScript does (and other languages) add a prefix to the numbers instead of creating extra functions:
eg:

0x?? for binary numbers
or h01DF4B, o1472, b0110, etc

it is a lot easier/shorter to write:

/calc h01DF4B + h412F

than:

/calc Hex(01DF4B) + Hex(412F)

Also, using the function Hex() like Hex(FF) doesn't make sense when you compare it to how such functions work in other languages and stuff. Hex() is to convert something to a hex number, not vice versa. Just like Cos() is used to calculate the cosinus not to convert a cosinus to something else.

And then you could still use those extra functions, but to change the output to some base. which would be more logical IMHO. eg:

/calc Oct(h01DF4B + b110110)

There you have a good point. I think I'll try these.

Well, for changing the output I already have:

code:

---

/calc oct 8+5

so I don't need them.

* Matti opens his project files...

EDIT: Yay! I made the modes working! hA now results in the decimal number 10, just as o12 and b1010.
Now, I'll have to make the negative numbers work... (e.g.: h-A)
