If you start changing the encoding of formatsettings (to something else than whatever "string" is, you get a lot of conversions. Even to just print a number you get thousandseparator (multiple times), decimal separator etc. I think biting the bullet and making it a string is better long term. If we ever target a different "string" it will also break less code. _______________________________________________ fpc-devel maillist - fpc-devel@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fpc-devel
