hi,
how can you {add,multiply,negate,divide} two scalars in TeX/LaTeX?

in a new command that i am writing (it places a \picture), i want to
use one of the two arguments (width) and \linewidth or \textwidth to
calculate the remaining horizontal space i have (for another picture).

i know i can convert a #1 argument of a command into a \length with
\newlength\setlength, but how can i mathematically combine multiple
\lengths? i know it's possible, though maybe not on the LaTeX level.

any clues?

martin;              (greetings from the heart of the sun.)
