Re: A ZLE widget for calculator

I think the attached does what you want.  It's based on the
modify-$BUFFER + .accept-line variation because among other things
that has the advantage of working at the PS2 prompt.  It
unconditionally removes and re-adds quotes.  The original $BUFFER is
saved in a global variable which is then added to the history by the
preexec hook, after suppressing the automatic history with
zshaddhistory hook.  This could probably use a function instead of an
alias for "=", but I didn't change that.

Thanks, it works perfectly!

FI, I have written a short blog post about this: https://vincent.bernat.ch/en/blog/2026-zsh-calculator
