;-)

What I'm thinking about is to simple type somthing like that:

"Dear customer, please pay < hoc -e '47.11 * 8.15' Euros, as
fast as you can"

and then mark '< hoc -e '47.11 * 8.15' and execute it in that
way, that the result replaces the selection. This is somthing
I can explain to a clerk.

send a command to the command window without
snarf/paste is a nice idea.
