decimal.mark parameter does not work (?)

[daroczig]

I tried to export some tables with ascii by setting the decimal.mark to , (Hungarian standard), but did not succeed:

> ascii(matrix(runif(2),2,2), digits=3, decimal.mark=',')
------- -------
0.989   0.989  
0.899   0.899  
------- -------

What am I missing? Sorry for lame question.

It seems that using your nice tocharac function inside an ascii call resolves this problem:

> ascii(tocharac(matrix(runif(2),2,2), digits=3, decimal.mark=','))
------- -------
0,116   0,116  
0,173   0,173  
------- -------

Although I am still not sure if this is the standard way of specifying decimal.mark.

No, you're right, it is a bug... I will fix that in a next release.

Thanks.

Thank you really much, @eusebe !
