It's not exactly a calculator, but it has a table with numbers to
multiply string length with.

Thanks. That is just what I wanted. I thought there might be some intractable mathematical equations involved. I'm trying to calculate meantone fretting for an instrument of 43cms and even I can multiply by 43!
Thanks again.

There is a fret placement spreadsheet on the LSA website that will provide you with all the information without re-calculation. It will give fret positions for a number of temperaments/and string lengths
it is worth looking at!
