simply not recognizing \A as meaning match at the start of input (which both
Python and .NET recognize so it’s just a matter of letting us pass it

<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"-moz-fixed","serif"'>Hi
all,<br>
formating Decimals does not work in IronPython:<br>
<br>
IronPython 2.6.1 (2.6.10920.0) on .NET 2.0.50727.4927<br>
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or
"license" for more information.<br>
>>> from decimal import Decimal<br>
>>> '{0:3.6f}'.format(Decimal('3.5'))<br>
Traceback (most recent call last):<br>
File "<stdin>", line unknown, in <module><br>
File "C:\src\python\decimal.py", line 3486, in __format__<br>
File "C:\src\python\decimal.py", line 5416, in
_parse_format_specifier<br>
ValueError: Invalid format specifier: 3.6f<br>
<br>
<br>
It works in CPython:<br>
<br>
Python 2.6.5 (r265:79096, Mar 19 2010, 18:02:59) [MSC v.1500 64 bit (AMD64)] on
win32<br>
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license"
for more information.<br>
>>> from decimal import Decimal<br>
>>> '{0:3.6f}'.format(Decimal('3.5'))<br>
'3.500000'<br>
<br>
It looks more like re bug because
_parse_format_specifier_regex.match(format_spec) returns None in IronPython.<br>
