Thanks, Khaled!
I'm surprised I've never encountered this before with handling user input and storing On Text $1- to a variable. Seems all these years someone must have typed "1 + 1" and my client would have thought they said "2".
I thought the Simple Math behavior of /set and /var was only with explicit assignments and not through evaluation of another variable or identifier... for which one would use $calc() instead.
