Yep, that's something I'm still mulling over. There's at least 3 currencies that do this, and do it in different ways, but all the ones I've seen so far do seem to have one preferred, or we can always just use the smallest subunit. There's no other OS or desktop I've seen that supports multiple subunits, so it could be an advantage for us to do so, but I'm not sure all the extra overhead would be worth it. And I need to talk to the translators about all the different naming schemes and plurals, etc. Who knew such a simple thing could be so complex? :-) _______________________________________________ Plasma-devel mailing list Plasma-devel@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/plasma-devel
