Bug Description
When inputting some characters in calculus, the outcome is different depending on if you used your keyboard or the GUI to input it. This can for example be seen when inputting a * character with the keyboard. While it shows up as a star with no spaces when using the keyboard, it shows up as an x symbol with spaces on either side when using the GUI. This also applies to the / character.
A proposal for a fix to this would be to not have any spaces and then replace all instances of * & / with the correct characters every time a user inputs something.

How can this bug be defined as 'wishlist'? This looks critical to me. I mean, using the num pad to operate a calculator is the number 1 way to go and here key inputs are all off (except for + and -)
