0006732: Decimal Separator Issue in Newick Export (MEGA 12.0.10)
Dear MEGA Team,

Thank you for developing and maintaining this great software.

I would like to report a bug I encountered in MEGA version 12.0.10 on a German Windows 11 installation:
When exporting a Newick tree from the Tree Explorer, it seems that the generated Newick text uses the operating system's decimal separator setting. If the decimal separator is set to a comma (","), this breaks the Newick format and renders the tree invalid. Notably, this issue does not occur in MEGA version 12.0.9.

Kind regards,
Justin Teixeira
Windows 11 set to German language

In Tree Explorer (MEGA 12.0.10):
Export Current Tree (Newick)

Decimal separator will be comma (see attachment).
No tags attached.
