Currency Formatting Function v1.0

[Grezvany13 64]

Please note that the euro sign is a prefix in English, Dutch and Danish (and probably more, don't know them all).

 

And something which I'm missing in this script is the use of comma's and points to indicate thousands and the decimal mark (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decimal_mark#Hindu.E2.80.93Arabic_numeral_system).

Especially with bigger numbers (and smaller ones), this might be interesting to add.

Hi,

It is added to the todo list, thanks for the input, was already thinking about adding decimal & thousands separators will definitely be in the next update.
