Thankfully it seems {big number} asCharacter digitValue does a good enough job of getting the number value and then we just have to more explicitly check for - and . If you take a look at StringFieldMorph>insertCharacter: you’ll see where the problem lies easily enough. To my amazement I can actually enter numbers and the arithmetic gets sorted out ok. Good job somebody!
