nf() changes 0.5 to 0,5

i wanted to save a .obj_file to data. before i changed floats by using nf().
the problem is nf() changes "." to ",".  it's not possible to use the saved file again with OBJLoader. the "," can not be interpreted. by the way saveStrings() puts the file into the sketchfolder. to use it again i need it inside the data.

it's not clear what the proper thing to do here would be.. the number format is gonna use the settings of your machine for number separators, so it seems a little presumptuous for us to override those. if you want more control, you can use java's NumberFormat class: http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/api/java/text/NumberFormat.html
