I read this a few times and am having difficulty determining what is being
requested/stated
the LC_NUMERIC category controls
decimal_point -- the decimal radix character
grouping -- tousands_sep grouping formula
thousands_sep -- the thousands separator character
the default values for a few locales:
LC_NUMERIC=C
decimal_point="."
grouping=""
thousands_sep=""
LC_NUMERIC=en_US.UTF-8
decimal_point="."
grouping="\003\003"
thousands_sep=","
LC_NUMERIC=de_DE.UTF-8
decimal_point=","
grouping="\003\003"
thousands_sep="."
can you please rephrase and/or clarify the synopsis with respect to the above
terminology
in particular, for the LC_NUMERIC category:
-- what does "delimiter" mean?
-- what does it mean to support other locales when LC_NUMERIC=C is fixed?
thanks
