MoneyWell tries to use the OS X settings for all decimal place views  
and also give the user a way to suppress decimal places on the  
Spending Plan and Allocate Income. A problem I've found is that OS X  
changes the way other currencies are shown depending on which currency  
is chosen for the system default.

I haven't worked out a workaround for this yet but I am reviewing it  
and looking at letting the user decide on decimal places no matter  
what the system preferences dictates.

Peace,
