Is there any way to have AppleScipt read a text message such as "what
is 3 + 3" and have it calculate the math so it can return the answer
(6, I believe. :) )
I would also like it to be able to do other math operations, and
recognize other terms like "plus" instead of "+".
Anyone ever do this before? Is there a semi-simple / efficient way?
If I need to have it parse the text in some clever way that is fine, I
do not need it to do large numbers... single digit would be good,
double digit would be great, triple would be overkill.
Thanks in advance
