I am quite sure it's not that easy but still a bit confusing: with LC_NUMERIC=de_DE zcalc i get floating point shown as something like `44,2' , because Germany has "," instead of ".". But i cannot use 3*4,2 to calculate. A mixture of both seems quite peculiar to me. Normally the programs that do show a "," in the result let me use the "," in the input, too. Matthias PS: It's not that _I_ need to enter values with "," in it, but I don't see the use of switching the style between input and output.
