The plug-in enables calculation of mathematical expressions utilizing Python's math module.

After the plug-in has been installed, a new PyCalc plug-in preference pane will be added to Quicksilver's Preferences.

1. Activate Quicksilver
2. Specify a mathematical expressions via text mode as the direct object in the first pane
   1. (Hint) You can press = to access text mode right away
3. Set the action to Pycalculate in the second pane
4. Press enter/return to execute the action

All legal expressions must begin with an equals sign =. Examples of legal mathematical expressions include:

• =1+2
• =1/2
• =1*2
• =1-2
• =1-2j
• =e
• =pi
• =exp(1)
• =sin(pi)
• =cos(pi/2)
• =tan(0)
• =log(e)
• =log10(2)
• =2**7
• =pow(2,7)
• =radians(180)
• =degrees(3.1415926535)
• =hypot(3,4)

For more information on available functions, try 'pydoc math' via the command line in Terminal or examine some on-line documentation.

• Functions which return something other than a number (e.g. modf and frexp return 2-tuples) are not directly supported – but individual components of the return values may be accessed using indexing notation (e.g. modf(3)[0] and modf(3)[1]).
• Refer to the forum thread for more details.

• By now it may be obvious, but this module hooks into a Python interpreter in a limited fashion. Consequently, there may be some bumps.
