To use the result of CAL in a command, call it transparently with 'CAL (a leading apostrophe) You can also use lisp statements on the command line, you just need to learn its syntax -enclose in parentheses, operator first. Your example: (/ .4136 2) be careful in division, if you use all integers the result will be an integer, for example (/ 5 2) will give you 2, not 2.5 Upvote 0 Downvote
