When passed a value of a single number, formats it according to the currency specification. For instance:
[currency]4[/currency]
will display:
4.00
or something else depending on the Locale and PriceCommas settings. It can contain a [calc] region. If the optional "convert" parameter is set, it will convert the value according to PriceDivide> for the current locale. If Locale is set to fr_FR, and PriceDivide for fr_FR is 0.167, the following sequence
[currency convert=1] [calc] 500.00 + 1000.00 [/calc] [/currency]
will cause the number 8.982,04 to be displayed.
