[edit] Notes / Bugs

[edit] Periods

We have not yet figured out how to handle periods. For example, you have to use "SJ" instead of "S.J.".

[edit] "Error"

To make this work when {{{1}}} is not a 3-digit number, or when {{{3}}} is not a 6-digit number, #if was used.

This, in turn, creates an error:

error: unrecognised punctuation character "{"

which only shows up here, but works fine otherwise.

Can someone fix this problem?
