Ok, this is my actual use case: I'm dabbling with using Thomas Elmigers rpn macro so it can take an arbitrary list of numbers instead of the current limit with two numbers. To achieve this, the idea is to use a listwidget and run the rpn macro for each number to add/deduct/multiply/divide to an accumulated result. You can see some dabbling here <http://recursion.tiddlyspot.com/>, which is actually part of a more general project to make a "recursion macro". It is not official and it is not sure it ever leads anywhere. Anyway, the macro call for the extended rpn macro would be something like <<rpnx "2 3 4 4 4 4 4 4 +">> or something similar. So, the numbers are actually explicitly stated by the user. <:-) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group.
