I don't know if some end-user application exists. Otherwise, perhaps you can modify an existing application to display the FP numbers in hexadecimal, as the C standard now allows you to do so (use the %a format for printf...). You can also write a very simple calculator from scratch; it shouldn't require much time. -- Vincent Lef�vre <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> - Web: <http://www.vinc17.org/> - 100% validated (X)HTML - Acorn Risc PC, Yellow Pig 17, Championnat International des Jeux Math�matiques et Logiques, TETRHEX, etc. Work: CR INRIA - computer arithmetic / SPACES project at LORIA -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
