float reader question


In Snd there's a feature to write out the current state
as a scheme program; part of the code writes floats; in
Germany (setlocale related?), these are written using
"," in place of "." as in

(set! hiho 0,000)

but when you try to load this back in later it gets
the error

#f: Unbound variable: 0,0000

Is it part of the Scheme language definition to use "."?
(I can't find the docs here at work...)
