If someone finds a need to support a third symbol, or support multi-byte currency symbols, or support textual designations such as "USD", then that's obviously going to require more changes, perhaps even allowing any series of non-numeric bytes before and after the actual value. But I don't know if that leaves the door too wide open, since "TESTING 123" would be considered valid. Since doing it this way was such a small change, I decided to just get it done. > -derek > > -- > Derek Atkins, SB '93 MIT EE, SM '95 MIT Media Laboratory > Member, MIT Student Information Processing Board (SIPB) > URL: http://web.mit.edu/warlord/ PP-ASEL-IA N1NWH > [EMAIL PROTECTED] PGP key available > _______________________________________________ > gnucash-devel mailing list > [email protected] > https://lists.gnucash.org/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-devel > _______________________________________________ gnucash-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.gnucash.org/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-devel
