"number" could also be given in e-notation, hex-notation, octal-notation ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-05-04 14:40:54] pmorgan at ukds dot net That needs to go into the manual "number in e-notation", which I understand, or even better as an additional flag "allow_e-notation". It's the last error I would have expected and is very misleading AFAIK. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-05-04 14:40:45] pmorgan at ukds dot net That needs to go into the manual "number in e-notation", which I understand, or even better as an additional flag "allow_e-notation".
