Hi all,

I hope this hasn't been discussed before but....

Has Peter Housel's FP package been ported to the V1.5 library yet?
I tried patching cc.c with his .cdif file, but couldn't get it to
succeed.

If this package has not been ported, is there any alternative for
an AT box?  I assume that once I switch to a 386, there will other
packages available (gcc has fp support under Minix, I presume?)

Thanks for any tips.
