Thomas,

If AllowGlobal doesn;t work in mv3, the best workaround is probably
to create a new usertag. Put this into a file named "date_fmt" in
the 'usertags' directory:

UserTag date-fmt
UserTag date-fmt Interpolate
UserTag date-fmt Routine <<EOR
sub {
    return POSIX::strftime('%d.%m.%Y %H:%M', localtime());
EOR

Add date-fmt to the list of UserTags in minivend.cfg and restart minivend.
Use like this:
	Current date is: [date-fmt]

As for converting 200.00 to 20000, a simple [calc] should do it:
	[set name=total interpolate=1][total-cost noformat=1][/set]
	[calc interpolate=1]$xtotal = $Safe{'scratch'}->{'total'};
		$xtotal =~ s/\.//; return $xtotal;[/calc]

This just replaces the '.' with nothing.

Put the [calc][/calc] inside another [set] if you want to save the
xtotal number to another scratch var.
