Hello, John,
"I'm not sure I see the utility of copying and pasting any of the
other formatted numbers here."
I do. Running calculations within a script, a tally of number of
files, job bytes, averages, etc.
Can't you just workaround using sed (sed 's/,//')?
Why? AFAIK vast majority of humans use nothing or space for thousands separator
and comma for decimal. Why can't bacula get it right?
Why? Because nobody wants it enough.
I'll fall back to the usual open source stance. If someone really wanted it,
it'd already be in the code.
Clearly, nobody wants it enough to do the work (or pay someone else).
If you are playing around with this sort of data you should just pull it
directly out of the database, formatting and so on can't get in the way
then.
Cheers,
