Hi guys, I've got a problem right here, but I know you can help me. ;-) I want to devide two numbers using 'expr' command line tool. But I can't devide numbers with commas, e.g. 10 / 2,5. This is how I wanted it to work: `expr 10 / 2,5` The script says "non-numeric argument". Then I tried: `expr 10 / 2.5' The answer of the script is the same as above. Of course, I'm not gonna use it as above. I wanted it to work with variables. Because I wanted to make a script that converts physical stuff, I need to work with commas. Do you have any solution for me? Thank you! 'Prof. Fosz' aka Fabian Foerster
