More Formats for Compact Currency #1004

Closed YousefEZ closed 2 months ago

YousefEZ commented 1 year ago

Can we have more format types for the format_compact_currency function, I was thinking spaced which would put a space between the number and the scale so like 3 M rather than 3M, as well as long which would write it in word form i.e. billion, million, thousand etc? https://github.com/python-babel/babel/blob/134c792df3b6aa84de3e74e81a875493c95dcc2e/babel/numbers.py#L718

If those formats are specified in the CLDR, then yes. We wouldn't be able to support arbitrary formats for all languages supported by Babel otherwise...
