Format a debug message

Hello.

Per the manual, a debug message may include variables e.g. (debug, Tool number is #5400)

When I do something like this the returned message carries the value to a large number of decimal places
i.e. for say tool 20, it will return 20.000000000 in the on screen message.

Is there a way to format the output of the debug message to limit the decimal places?

I don't think that MSG i.e. (msg, xxxxx) can hold either variables or be formatted so I suspect a debug message is the only option, but I'm interested to hear any thoughts.

Thanks,
Marty.
 

There is no way to format the float.
That would be a great little project though.

I certainly don't personally need this functionality, and more for the fun of it, but how "little" is a "little project" like this?

Just intrigued about the back end workings....

No, not I!

It is a fairly unique user name I guess, Martin backwards, but given the above I suspect there's more out there who have thought of it
