Distinction between symbols of chinese yuan and japanese yen

[mBytePT™]

Hey all!

I'd like to suggest using different symbols for chinese yuan and japanese yen. Both currently use the same symbol (¥).

No way to distinguish between the two without looking at the value and compare with the others.

¥ is the official currency symbol for both. the only thing steam could to is to drop the currency abbreviation somewhere in there like JPY¥ CNY¥.

but it should be really easy to differentiate them

1000 yen are like 50 yuan.

I think the idea is not having to look at the value to know the meaning of the symbol.
I guess that adding JPY and CNY (similar to what is done to several currencies using the $ sign) prefixes would be better than having just the symbol.
