Description Gauss 2013-10-15 17:13:39 UTC 
Simple bug:
until a few days (maybe weeks) ago you could enter operations using letters like exponential coefficients or logarithms in the KRunner calculator and it calculated a result,
e.g. 3*1e5= 3e5 or ln(10)=2,3025..
Now it only accepts numeric input and some standard operators (+-*/()%! )

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Type ln(10)

Actual Results:  
Nothing

Expected Results:  
ln(10)=2,3025..

I can confirm this.

I confirm this. I'm using kubuntu 13.10, kde-workspace-bin version 4:4.11.2-0ubuntu1.

Fix krunner calculator letter check

To make it work, you have to start or end the calculator
input with a '=' symbol again. For inputs not containing
letters, you can still omit it.
