This is a question I was just about to ask. In DTML, you can say:

Cost per unit: <dtml-var expr=3D"_.float(total_cost/total_units)"=20
fmt=3Ddollars-and-cents>

(from the Zope Book)

Doing it the python %.2f way will work, but ideally we'd want something
that would display in the appropriate currency, localized (commas,
periods, currency symbol, etc).

Is there a way to do this from ZPT, or do I have to create a python
script to do it for me?
