After a bit of discussion over on TiddlyTalk 
<https://talk.tiddlywiki.org/t/what-are-current-options-for-plain-arithmetic/2699/12>,
 
I've resolved a security issue and feel good enough about the little 
solution for lengthy/complex (but primitive only) arithmetic expressions.

In this sample TiddlyWiki instance 
<https://cjveniot.neocities.org/TiddlyWikiEvalThisMacro.html>, you'll find 
the following two tiddlers needed:


   - Eval.js (the javascript eval function, locked to only allow the 
   characters (excluding the double quotes) "0123456789 ()+-*/%"
   - EvalThis tiddler with the EvalThis macro.


Although I can't stand javascript, I am not fussy about TiddlyWiki filter 
operations for lengthy/complex basic arithmetic, and not really fond of 
bringing in any of the powerful plugins out there when I don't need that 
much oomph.

Some sample macro references:

`
<<EvalThis "(100 + 2) / (9 - 1)">>

<<EvalThis "59 % 3">>

<<EvalThis "5**3">>

<<EvalThis "( {{!!a}} * {{!!b}} ) / 2">>

<$list filter="[range[25]]"> {{!!title}} / 2 = <<EvalThis "{{!!title}} / 
2">><br> </$list>
`
