hi there i need to set my locale so that when i output a number it's formatted with thousands grouped. the problem i've found is there doesn't seem to be very good cross platform support for locales, even between unix's it's horrid.
Have you tried this::
import locale locale locale.setlocale(LC_ALL, '') locale.format('%.2f', 1000000, True)
The `True` turns on grouping. Should work cross platform.

and thats would mean i'd have to run everything through a formatter before i displayed it :/ it'd be nicer if i could just select a proper locale
