I tend to find myself doing quite afew calculations on NightMist.. I was wondering if there could be a function say: /calc (sum)
Just as another small thing, to save people having to find a calculator. Dunno if anyone else feels it'd be usefull, so..?

I put a shortcut to my calculator on my task bar a long time ago...along with notepad, vb, psp, and my ftp program.
On-topic, I think a /calc could be useful if it showed how much exp you have left until you reach the next level. Other than that I can't think of another reason to set it up in the NM client...NM wasn't created to help you do your homework (in fact, it does just the opposite).

no if you want to add up things when people put in a combo of items you value them then put it in on calc for answer to how much thereby giving you the answer its nt essential, but it would make a nice feature.

I have to agree with Valentine on this one. There should be no other purpose for that command.. unless you're wanting to find out the exact amount of exp you have left to lvl to the next lvl. I only use my cal. on my comp to figure out how much gold I have total.

I tend to work out how much exp im gaining on average. How much exp per PoD a monster gives.. And various other things of the sort.
It was just a side idea if JLH got bored? *laughs* And wanted something.. Errr.. Something else to code
EDIT: Missed out a word, and bad spelling

im making a new nm information site, and im putting a quite of few things on there, one of them being how much exp each creature gives you per point of damage you deal to it and and kill exp. and i wouldn't mind having a /calc because instead of doing all the work i could input /calc 74,807,679-74,807,137
then /calc total......okay nevermind, theres no use for it, lol. use calculater everyone

I think spell-check on the forum would be the first word processor feature to be added, if they were going to follow that route.

I've been seeing all these odd suggestions lately. Such as this and /date and time. What is next? Nightmist is not a utility program to suit all your needs and most computers come standard with a calculator...I ask why?

Why not just buy a Internet Keyboard, you can reassign the extra buttons to open Calc, Spell Checker and so on. Oh wait, That would involve spending Money, Scratch that idea then.
Even better, Make windows open Calc by assigning Button combos like Ctrl+Shift+9 to open Your desired Programs.

I actually made a calc program like this once, only time i use calc is for clan house selling. It's more of a silly thing really than an actual useful game function, so, i've noted it for comedy value, and so it may not appear for ages, or it will appear soon if i find the program i originally wrote.

*giggles quietly to itself*
Weee.. If it does come in anytime soon, makes my life a bit easier. I already use NM for the time, saves me moving my mouse! Dang the effort involved these days..
