After receiving several bug reports from users in one of my scripts, I
came across this strange behavior. If GVim is being run in a different
language, most functions cannot be called with floating point numbers
as arguments. Here are the steps to reproduce:
file: test.vim ----------------------------------
function TestFloat(secret_number)
echo a:secret_number
endfunction
call TestFloat(3.14)
-----------------------------------------------------
> export LANG=de_DE.utf-8
> gvim
:source test.vim
Produces:
E806: using Float as String
E116: Invalid arguments for function TestFloat
This test, and all my bug reports, have come running Ubuntu 9.04.
