 I use the frame-based solution for doc lookup (index.html by me), here 
http://www.software-lab.de/doc/,

I realised only a few months ago that these pages were Jon's work (or in
part?). Thanks for this. I'd be curious to have an historical point of view
concerning the doc.

Now a question then a suggestion.

Is there a good reason to have separate pages? I understand that only one
page would be huge but I'd find it more convenient.

Would it be interesting to have the ref in a format like Markdown and
generate a single or several pages, in html or pdf?

BTW I just noticed in the doc for (usec) that there was a typo and that I
don't find it very clear:

I noted that it's not possible to download PDFs at all from Scribd
anymore without paying $9. What about making them downloadable from
picolisp.com?

Bug in Pil64 bignum multiplication

[Alexander Burger]

Hi all,

yesterday Mike Pechkin found a bug in 64-bit bignum multiplication.

It is a really stupid bug, returning the wrong register value when the
first argument is a bignum and the second argument is zero. Only in this
special combination. For example

   (* 1448194831602515360 0)
   - 1448194831602515360

Too bad that we found this so late! It eluded all unit tests :(

The fix was easy. I've uploaded a new release, and committed the change
to the repo.

Sorry for the trouble!
- Alex
