Hi.

I wrote a checkWriting stack in HC about 25 years ago. No modulo, just text 
parsing. It is compact and utterly basic. If nobody else replies in the next 
day, I will pull it from my office and send you the code. It is just chunk 
engineering. Fun stuff.

Subject: Is it really this hard to print currency values?


As I sat down to finally encode currency into my output, I pulled old
answers from older questions and did more searches.

Is it *really* this hard to output currency?

To turn 123456.78 into $123,456.78, everything I'm finding would have
me using modulo arithmetic to produce three values, with these three
values being output in the string (4, actually, to allow values in the
millions).

Am I missing something obvious here?
