I'm not adverse to the feature but if you say other languages are doing this on the RFC page, please provide links to the relevant documentation of those languages. Google is not being helpful - mostly just turns up this particular discussion thread and Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary_numeral_system Mentions the notation briefly as being "common in programming languages" but then fails to list relevant programming languages (Wikipedia reference fail). I've never seen the option to do this in ANY programming language I have ever used. But I have definitely wanted such a feature on a few occasions. +1 for the feature and setting a new standard with an approach that makes sense. -- Thomas Hruska CubicleSoft President Barebones CMS is a high-performance, open source content management system for web developers operating in a team environment.
