calling function in msg

you are right, sorry
I did the following

sin(3)*3     -> 0.42336
3*sin(3)     -> bad command - error in handler
3*(sin(3))  -> bad command - error in handler

but also 3*3 gives bad command - error in handler, so I tried

3 * 3            -> 9
sin(3) * 3     -> 0.42336
3 * sin(3)     -> 0.42336
3 * (sin(3))  -> 0.42336

spaces before and after "*"
