[Bug 885251] [NEW] Don't display a thousands seperator in binary mode

 

Public bug reported:

I switched to programmers mode in gcalctool and also enabled in prefs, that a thousands seperator is to be shown.
I then switch to binary mode.

Now I entered a number: 1111001
It's displayed as: 1'111'001

Ie. every 3 digits, a thousands seperator (the ' in my case) is added.

For binary mode, this doesn't make much sense. Instead, it would be
useful, if every 4 digits a space would be added. Just like it's done in
the "display" above the keys.
