  currency() -- Formats "amount" in standard American currency format.
  "amount" can be a real, integer, or numeric string.  "width" is the
  output field width, in which the amount is right adjusted.  The
  returned string will be longer than "width" if necessary to preserve
  significance.  "minus" is the character string to be used for
  negative amounts (default "-"), and is placed to the right of the
  amount.
