It might be spiffy if mIRC used something like this, though it obviously would need to limit output to something less than 1k digits (for the line length limits).
If I knew now what I will know then... maybe things will have been different...
there talking about something else, not the current limit, which i think your right on, but rather a math engine that can do 32,000 digit values, only problem would be mircs 900 or so string length limit then.
