We've already got \setdigitmode, \setdigitorder, and \setdigitspace;
it might make sense to create a \setupdigits to consolidate these
setups into one interface. Something like this:
\setupdigits
[mode=4, % -->\setdigitmode{4}
% (decimal period, thinspace between groups)
inputdecimalmark={,}, % -->\setdigitorder{0}
signspace=yes, % -->\setdigitsign{1}; '+ 1.4', not '+1.4'
times=\times, % or times=\cdot
]
+1
P.s: I've been thinking I'd like to write more contexty interface that
doesn't use predefined modes, but lets you setup the decimal mark,
separator mark, the input decimal mark, etc. Something like this:
\setupdigits
[inputdecimal={.}, % input 3.1415926535
decimal={,}
separator=\space,
groupsize=4, % output 3,1415 9265 45
signspace=,] % +3.14159...
That could even tie into \setuplanguage to allow setting
language-specific defaults. Would anyone be interested in this?
+1 again!
needs a bit of thinking as when we start this route we get lots of new
keywords (with the danger of introducing inconsistencies) so first we
need to collect all potential candidates for such keys (e.g. using
separator might be too generic )
