Hi,

I'm exporting my transactions as CSV for processing by another program (awk - 
but that's not really relevant). Large numbers in the exported CSV have commas 
in them, like this:

"20,000"

In theory the quotes protect the comma from being considered a separator. But 
in practice it's hard to get regular expressions to recognise this. My current 
solution is to export the transactions with ";" (semi-colon) delimiters. But I 
would be interested in a way to prevent GnuCash putting commas in large 
numbers. Not all countries use the comma to break up large numbers. Some use 
spaces and other things. And I've seen the comma used as a decimal separator in 
some cases.

Is this behaviour baked into GnuCash ... or maybe I could change it with the 
LC_ environment variables?

Cheers,

Tim Hume
