Subject: Is there a way to start Calc, taking the region as input and replacing it with the value?
Date: Sat, 1 Feb 2014 18:40:07 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20140201184007.6eefe661@aga-netbook> (raw)

Well, the subject is basically what I want.  I'd like to be able to
type, e.g., "2+3", mark it as a region, and press *something* only to
get it *replaced* by "5".

C-u C-x * g C-x * y q is pretty close, but not the same (and way too
long to be comfortable).

If there's no such thing, I could probably write it in Elisp myself,
but why reinvent the wheel?

Best,
