I know this is not what you asked but I would be interested to know the 
scenarios of
the comma-dot problems you mentioned.  My recent change for the fonts was due 
to the
fact that the locale settings of the computer were configured one way but the 
CXF
font file was formatted the other way.  The change I made, if it works, was safe
enough to leave in all versions of Heeks without needing to add a 'switch 
language'
option.  The difficulty is knowing when to apply it.  If the file we are 
reading is
formatted as per the local comma-dot settings then this workaround is not 
required
(although it is still safe).

Maybe we should have our own version of 'strtod()' that makes this comma-dot 
check
first and works for all locale settings.  The down-side is that it would slow 
down
the conversion but it would be safe for all settings.  (Of course I'm assuming 
the
fix worked.  I haven't heard back to know if the font change worked yet).
