This little patch changes the comma to a dot, and apparently everywhere. Nice code design: having this in one place only :D

Of course, this should be selected appropriately through i18n. But until then, this patch should work for US users.

Actually I think the whole world can cope with a '.' ;)

Why this is set to ',' by default is a mistery to me! (probably from the days when I though I was evloving b2 for me alone :p)

I can't agree, since in French, the right decimal separator is a comma, while the right thousand separator is a dot. One thousand euros would be written:

• 1,000.00 € in English,

• 1.000,00 € in French.[/list:u]

French people (as well as people from other countries) not used with computers would be confused to read a dot as decimal separator as English-speaking people are confused to see a comma there.

Where exactly would one place this patch?

In the top directory, with option -p1 to patch. See man patch
