Eli

Thanks for this tip!
I read Emacs Lisp manual on this and followed the example.
After some tweaking I can get eval to print something without
an error by adding following to modeline list....

'(:eval "%c + 1")

The ' and the double quotes are necessary.


The above will print "0 + 1" on the modeline when in the first column.

*****How can I tell Emacs to evaluate the *addition* in quotes rather
     than just interpret it as a /string/????
