In my previous posting about the af command line parameter problem
my solution neglected the possibility of negative exponents.  Sorry.
What follows is the correct (I hope) code to improve af so that it
allows scientific notation in its command line parameters. This fix
supersedes the previous.

Once again, sorry for the inconvenience of two messages when one should
have been enough.
