From: Darien Caldwell I'm pretty sure everyone calls them 'Ls' (elles). At least I do..
"Thats way to many Ls to spend." Ironically I actually would put that as "That is too many Lindens to spend." I am, it appears, odd.

wouldn't it be cool that instead of $ you could use a L with a similar line through it.
hmmm course then it might look like pounds.
Thats okay they use Euros now, so maybe pounds is free.
(there is no British pound symbol on my keyboard or Id use it for demonstration purposes.)

As stated before, L$10 is the official way. The official way should also include the use of commas separators (unlike when selling land which makes it less of a wonder why people accidentally drop a zero from the price). L$100,000 is much much better, IMHO, than L$100000. --Hugsy

OK so I did this today, making a conscience effort to type a dollar amount like LL does it. But when I wanted to tell someone it was zero linden, it looks like this:
$L0
Just doesnt look right for some reason.
