What's with the 89? And the other semi-magic numbers? If we fear about non-arabic number formatting, at least in French French the worst offender may be quatre-vingt-quatorze ("four score and fourteen") or quatre-vingt-dix-neuf ("four score and nineteen"), namely 94 or 99. But I think it's improbable to get worded formatting here anyway. Or are those the largest values with their respective granularity? -- David Kastrup -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
