Excellent! I didn't realise this code was already there. Maybe there's also some way to use it to implement 'n' formatting for Decimal (which in some ways behaves like a hybrid floating-point and integer type). I can't think of any reason that the LC_NUMERIC stuff shouldn't apply to integers as well as floats. __________________________________ Tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue2802> __________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
