CX means that the function is a compiler-generated call. The V says that this function does a conversion. The 4 means "from single precision floating point." The 5 means "to double precision floating point." Here is a more complete breakdown: V – conversion routine M – multiply operation D – divide operation A – addition/subtraction operation (combined) ? – other more specific functions too numerous to list. 🙂 The numbers used signify the type of number involved: 2 – unsigned long 3 – signed long 4 – single precision float 5 – double precision float Hope this answers your questions.

Mike, Is this information in the compiler/linker docs? 'Twould be nice to have all this stuff available. Darron

Darron, Sorry, but I don't think we document it anywhere. These routines are meant to only be called by the compiler, because they make many assumptions about what registers contain certain values, and the compiler knows to put the proper values into the proper registers. I'm not sure how much value this info would be, but I'll see about getting it into the docs for the next compiler release. — Mike Roth

While you're looking at things to fix, you might think about fixing the default tool on your disk icons. You don't have "sys:system/diskcopy" there; without it you can't copy disks from the WB. Some people do things like that, you know. 😉

I'll see about getting this info into the documentation for our next compiler release. Maybe I should put this info together in a file and upload it.
