I think "Mr.Mohammadi Far" offered "Reh" for classic typewriters, (what you've seen many times in front of courthouses in Iran) I'm not sure, but I think it was hard (or  impossible) to switch to English mode to write comma Left To Right.
You know, for 1000 seperator you must use LTR comma and "Reh" is similar to LTR comma.
In new technology, it is easy to use a mixture of English and Persian characters in same line just by pressing Alt+Shift ;)

Subject: [persiancomputing]Separating persian numbers with comma is incorrect

e-Greetings,
 
 
As described in the book "Nogh-teh GozAri" (The official Persian Manual of Editing, Vol.5, Punctuaion Book) written by "Mohammad-RezA Mohammadi-Far", page 460:
 
It is not correct to use comma (",") or U+06CC to separate every group of thousands in numbers. Instead, the editor must use the Persian letter 'Reh (U+0631)'.
 
Bedrood,
BEHzad
