character? e.g., by checking whether the input string contains only 0-9.:/()+* characters?
I simply in the update puts all search strings through the calculator. if you use the "= " prefix you get the error strings from calculator back.
libqalculate seems to be quite dependency intensive; can we use something more lightweight, ideally adding no dependencies?
