Hi Paul,
Yes it would be useful to know what the problem with decpoint was and if it is
still broken. A test would be great, thanks!
I don't really know the behaviour of the hyphen opcode, will have to look into
that. But anyway, defining multiple characters as hyphen is indeed something to
consider.
Thanks,
Bert
