- SYNOPSIS
- 1mnumberm 3m[language]m
-
- DESCRIPTION
- 3mNumberm copies the standard input to the standard output,
- changing each decimal number to a fully spelled out version. It
- works with a lot of languages, among which are English, French,
- Chinese, Vietnamese... If it is given a language that it doesn't
- know, it prints out the list of languages that it does know.
- Some languages are listed under more than one name, such as
- Gaellic and Irish.
-
- BUGS
- It currently doesn't handle very large numbers. It could be
- made to do so, and maybe it will someday.
