# The decimalcomma package


## Presentation

Many countries use a comma instead of a period as the decimal separator.
This small package offers a new definition of the comma `,` as an active character.
It ensures the correct spacing in mathematical mode when using the comma either
as decimal separator or as list separator.

What's the difference compared to the well-known icomma or ncccomma packages? 
With decimalcomma, the comma behaves similarly to ncccomma, but the code is lighter, 
and several compatibility issues have been fixed.


## Installation

- run LaTeX on decimalcomma.ins, you obtain the file decimalcomma.sty,
- if then you run pdfLaTeX on decimalcomma.dtx you get the file decimalcomma.pdf which is also in the archive,
- put the files decimalcomma.sty and decimalcomma.pdf in your TeX Directory Structure.
