02/25/91 FPC 3.5502 Changes and additions
FPC 3.5502 is primarily a bugfix update. Most of the bugs listed in
the file FPC350.BUG were fixed in 3.5502. In addition to bug fixes,
the VIEWFIX by Robert Patten was incorporated to allow VIEW to
function properly when nesting FLOAD's. The "HEADER", "HEADERLESS"
words have been re-arrainged a little bit, since some words that
were marked headerless needed to be available. A few compiler
control words have been added to make allow making program code more
compatible with the TCOM compiler.
The way F-PC uses memory has been changed from using ALLOC many times
in the various places in the program, to using only SETBLOCK, and a
POINTER scheme to keep all of the memory F-PC uses together and under
control. See the file POINTER.SEQ for more details.
An updated copy of Robert Smith's SFLOAT is included, as is his new
FFLOAT for the 80x87 floating point processor. SFLOAT is very fast,
but FFLOAT provides a three to seven times performance improvement
when a floating point processor is available.
Other changes have been made, see the file FPCNOTES.TXT after installing
F-PC.
