Somebody in Australia or in an Australian website expects to see the $ sign alone.

Hi @PANOPTICONISM,

I've updated the symbol for Australia. However, I'm curious if I should also update it for other countries that use Australian dollar?

@alexdid People in Australia don't like to see A in front of $.

But in other countries (for eg., from US, CA), people see A$ to avoid confusion. The same thing happens in other countries as well.

Is it okay to remove A in front of $ or we should have one more parameter to mention the locale?

@ramseth001 is correct - the solution depends on the audience. Back then I was only thinking about the Aussies. The locale parameter would be a good call @alexdid.
