I used the following shortcut on my website to eliminate mistakes during transfers, and I have missed that in Eve ever since:

When filling out an amount of isk, using a letter for type:
"k" - Thousands
"m" - Millions
"b" - Billions

So when doing an isk transfer or whatever field for isk, for example 2 million, instead of writing:
2000000
I simply just put:
2m

And clientside would recognize that, and instantly replace with 2000000
Obviously it will only work with round numbers, but us humans seem to be so fund of those :-)

Its a little thing but this has saved me many times from counting zero's while transferring trillions of isk.

European Billions are useless in the scale that EvE markets work at, so 'MERICA!

I'd +1 this.


Long day and small screen writing I know I'd be happy to go say 1B for an item price and be done. Vice triple counting 0's jsut to make sure.
