- Yes, pml uses IEEE format.
-
- Hm, 16M of RAM, why? Ah well, no matter.
-
- Can someone tell me if pml.olb uses IEEE floating point or not?
-
- I'm trying to whip up the latests NetPBM suite of utils, and the TIFF
- library needs IEEE floats, or a way to convert to/from native floating
- point format. If pml doesn't have IEEE floats, how do I convert to/
- from that format?
-
- As an aside, don't try compiling this at home; the TIFF library requires
- at least 16M of RAM (probably more with recent versions of gcc). Yes,
- my cross-compiler makes me happy... ;-)
