Mark Dickinson <dickinsm at gmail.com> added the comment:
New version of decimal_n_format.patch, with support for the thousands
separator (PEP 378). As discussed on python-dev, during zero-padding the
patched code adds an extra '0' on the left to avoid a leading ',' if
necessary. For example:
>>> format(Decimal('123456'), '08,')
'0,123,456'
The Decimal.__format__ method (and support code) had to be fairly
significantly reworked. However, I'm reasonably confident that this code
is correct: a patch review would be welcome if anyone has the time;
otherwise I'll commit this in a couple of days or so.
