Falsehoods programmers believe about prices

1. You can store a price in a floating point variable.
2. All currencies are subdivided in 1/100th units (like US dollar/cents, euro/eurocents etc.).
3. All currencies are subdivided in decimal units (like dinar/fils)
4. All currencies currently in circulation are subdivided in decimal units. (to exclude shillings, pennies) (counter-example: MGA)
5. All currencies are subdivided. (counter-examples: KRW, COP, JPY... Or subdivisions can be deprecated.)
6. Prices can't have more precision than the smaller sub-unit of the currency. (e.g. gas prices)
7. For any currency you can have a price of 1. (ZWL)
8. Every country has its own currency. (EUR is the best example, but also Franc CFA, etc.)

# Easiest used in combination with a launcher/trigger software such as Quicksilver.

########## SETTINGS 

# On startup, lftp executes ~/.lftprc and ~/.lftp/rc. You can place aliases and 'set' commands 
# there. Some people prefer to see full protocol debug, use 'debug' to turn the debug on.

# Certain commands and settings take a time interval parameter. It has the format Nx[Nx...], where N is time amount
# (floating point) and x is time unit: d - days, h - hours, m - minutes, s - seconds. Default unit is second. E.g.
# 5h30m or 5.5h. Also the interval can be 'infinity', 'inf', 'never', 'forever' - it means infinite interval. E.g.
# 'sleep forever' or 'set dns:cache-expire never'.
