I'd like to use the IEEE math translation libraries in a Manx 3.6 program, to convert some 64 bit IEEE doubles to FFP single precision format. (I know, I'll lose precision.) Any tips on creating and using these functions, if I'm currently compiled with Motorola FFP floats? I'll start studying the Manx source code for these libraries, but any tips would be appreciated. Language warriors please drop dead, I haven't the time to argue "Why?".
