There's one other thing, and that is negative numbers will screw up, as $bytes(-100,b) returns -,100 Code: alias comma { if ($1 !isnum) return tokenize 46 $1 return $+($iif(-* iswm $1,-),$bytes($abs($1),b),$iif($0 == 2,.),$2) } Anyway, you knew this already, but pointing it out still, and I'm sure you'll point something out too :tongue: Greets
