--- Comment #3 from Evan Teran <ete...@alum.rit.edu> ---
Yea, this one is tough because I can see both implementations as being
reasonable. As a programmer, I would expect a value of 0777 to be interpreted
as octal no matter what ... because it is an octal number by convention.

But you may a good point, and not everyone is a programmer. Perhaps a
compromise would be to prefer using the current mode, but if that produces an
invalid number (like 0x12345 in decimal mode), then fallback on the current
behavior. I dunno, I'm not sure if I love that either :-/

Certainly, it is possible to make this a configurable option. So maybe that's
reasonable.

I'd been a while since I have been terribly active in kcalc, so bear with me
while I get a bit reacquainted with the source :-).
