Is it necessary to restrict "," to decimal? Why not make "," and "_" orthogonal?
While "," with non-decimal might be rarely used, there would be less special cases to remember.
I wasn't even aware the restriction existed until this thread (it's one of those "I'd never tried it, so I didn't know it was prohibited" cases). Cheers, Nick. -- Nick Coghlan | ncoghlan@gmail.com | Brisbane, Australia
