Well, keep in mind that English also has a "special rule" for fractions if they're written in textual form: "half an apple" vs. "0.5 apples". If you REALLY want to get localized, look at the ability to write out textual forms of numbers within ICU. http://icu.sourceforge.net/apiref/icu4c/classRuleBasedNumberFormat.html _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
