I find it odd that, for float formatting, the choice of fill character affects whether commas are inserted:
Python 3.2a0 (py3k:76671, Dec 4 2009, 18:55:54) [GCC 4.2.1 (Apple Inc. build 5646) (dot 1)] on darwin Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
format(float(1234), '0=20,g') '0,000,000,000,001,234' format(float(1234), '1=20,g') '1111111111111111,234' format(float(1234), 'X=20,g') 'XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX1,234'
I haven't spent a lot of time looking at it, but this might be related to http://bugs.python.org/issue6902 .
I'll move this up in my queue.
Eric.
