There's got to be a way to reference the floating point routines from the ACTION compiler without going into extensive ML routines. Has anyone seen anything like that, is it part of the tools? Has anyone written something like that or wishs to take on the project???

The ACTION! Tool Kit has procedures for accessing the floating point routines in the Atari ROM. John

OSS used to distribute a bunch of routines on a separate disc called a 'programmers library' or something along those lines (NOT to be confused with the run-time library) that contained various useful routines like character manipulation/transalation stuff, routines for PM graphics, and also had the floating point functions; most of the stuff would pop in as in-line ML code, though all the use had to do was include the code and call it like a regular function. The name of the disc was later changed to the 'Action toolkit', and it can be obtained from OSS or picked up somewhere for $15 or so. Its definitely worth the money. -------------------------------------------------------------------- -ravi {decvax,ucbvax}!mcnc!ravi -- -------------------------------------------------------------------- -ravi {decvax,ucbvax}!mcnc!ravi
