Hi,

According to the wiki and 2003 article Pasting Digits together,
to get 1314000 typeset as 1\,314\,000, I should do
\setdigits 3 \digits{1314000}

unfortunatly, the \setdigits command looks obsolete (MkII command?
Could not find in my ConTeXt help information server
(http://localhost:8088/mtx-server-ctx-help.lua? and so on…).
I am using 2018 texlive.

Maybe job is now done by \setupunit, but couldn't figure out
how it works.

So what should I do to have numbers typeset the French way
(points&commas or thinmuskip&commas)?

MWE to be improved

\starttext
\setdigits 3 \digits{1314000}
\stoptext

Thanks,

Damien Thiriet
