Summary: NSKeyedArchiver saves localized numbers on Windows
Original Submission: I'm using Windows 2000 with German localization.
gnustep-base is 1.9.1 from the automatic installer on the gnustep.org page.
When using NSKeyedArchiver, numbers like "1.5" are saved as "1,5", i.e. in
their localized form. If I change the decimal seperator to "." in the system
settings, the numbers are saved correctly.
Hm, this reminds me ... isn't saving floating point numbers as text dangerous? it
can result in unexpected behaviour as float->text conversion cat greately loose
precision. Would it be possible to store floats as (or in addion as) some encoded
float/double bytes?
