At least one good thing - KSpread finally respects the locale settings. =
But
couldn't all function examples be described in *one* string? Like:
"%1 equals %2"
... which in KSpread becomes ...
"acos(0) equals 1.57079633" (and all others ...)
Since the user can override locale settings, English users may use a =
comma
(or Norwegian users a period) as decimal separator. Then, %2 in the =
string
above should be a *computed* value, based on the *current* settings.
The way KSpread's function examples is organised now just make a lot of
extra work for translators.
