[comp.sys.atari.st] printf for float types

jlf@a.cs.wvu.wvnet.edu (Jack L Forester) (10/18/89)

Which library for Sozobon C contains a printf function that will support
float types?  I tried dLibs 1.2 and the %f causes the character 'f' to
be printed.  I do not use the cc program to compile, assemble, and link my
programs (I have my reasons.  I don't have enough time or desire to explain
why, so please, no comments on that.), but instead run hcc, top, jas, and ld.

The files I link are

dstart.o
roots.o   (my program)
libm.a
dlibs12.a  (I'm not exactly sure of the name I use).

Please respond by mail.  No sense in wasting other people's time.
Many thanks in advance!

I have a modified version of printf that does floating point. I use it with
GCC and the floating point lib of John Dunning, but I don't know why it
shouldn't work with sozobon.

I found a printf bug today, and have not yet tested it. When ready I can
either mail it or post it.
