"I realized that instead of inserting commas, I wanted to underline alternating groups of 3 digits so that the font would work in monospace contexts."

- freddie_mercury 7y agoIf you're downloading and installing a custom font, why do you need it to be locale-aware? Just down the variant that uses whatever your locale needs. (Or if there isn't one, fork it and change the commas to periods and the install that.) It seems like the only reason you'd need a locale-aware one is on a multi-user system where you'd expect users to have different locales and you're installing the font globally. But that doesn't really seem like a likely use-case for this pretty niche font that is almost exclusively going to installed on single-user machines by the end-user.
