1. For string to double, preprocess the input string to change it to use current-locale spelling before calling the platform C strtod().
I see (I was confused by the presence of a table of bytes). This is much worse, then: How can it possibly know what formats the C library expects in the current locale? What if the C library insists that a thousands-separator is used when the locale has one? etc. Regards, Martin
