    I was putting this into qalculate:

    (0.7•ideal_gas•25•celcius)/20atm

    and got this:

    ≈ 6.9084629E-11(3.9538462E12 kelvin mole + 1.039309E6 meter3) moles−1

    Shouldn't it convert celcius into kelvin automatically and produce this:
    ≈ 8.562901E-4 meter3mole−1

    ?

    Yeah, it should.  For me it says "273.15 K + 71.800276(mm^3 ∕ mmol)", which doesn't make sense as there are no additions in the input.

    Also, celcius is misspelled.  Should be celsius, which Qalculate interprets as "speed_of_light ⋅ e ⋅ liter ⋅ second ⋅ i ⋅ microsecond"  :)

    Both issues are known and the "celcius" misspelling is already fixed in the development branch. As a side note, please use the bug tracker to report these issues so that they are not lost.
