Description screen-rind-whoops 2024-07-23 10:51:45 UTC 
SUMMARY
It's common to do percent calculations by pressing the % key.

I thought this was supported in the old version of kcalc but is now missing.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Type "87 + 5%"
2. Enter.

OBSERVED RESULT
87 + 5% = 87.05

EXPECTED RESULT
87 + 4.35 = 91.35
After pressing % key, input textbox automatically calculates 5% of 87 and replaces "5%" with "4.35".

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
