>>> DECUS C SUPPORTS FLOATING POINT AND INLINE EIS <<<


Submitted by: Robert B. Denny

Pasadena, CA.

At long last, here is a PRELIMINARY binary kit for Decus C which
supports floats and doubles. You need FPU hardware, or an emulator.
The compiler also emits inline EIS. Many, many bug fixes to the
compiler, a complete overhaul of some of it, restructuring of the
library, more tools, etc.

This kit is the result of a last minute merge (late Tuesday nite,
May 4), and may have a few glitches, but nothing serious.

Thanks to Martin Minow (DEC) for doing 80% of ALL work on Decus C,
('nuff said!), Cliff Geschke at Unimation Robotics, who did the massive
overhaul and testing of the compiler and Scott Roth, also at Unimation,
who did the library mods for floating point, the C trig routines, and
other goodies.

To set things up on your system, and optionally create the documentation,
invoke SETUP.CMD after reading it.

The finally released complete kit will be available from
the DECUS library soon. PLEASE, if you want a copy of
the kit, sources and all, order it from the DECUS library.
I have gone nuts over the last year and a half answering
calls on problems due to corrupted or partial kits. THE
LIBRARY CAN'T CONTINUE TO EXIST IF YOU DON'T ORDER PROGRAMS
THROUGH IT.
