We limit ourselves to half so that *distances* can fit in a signed same-size value. The range of computable distances on a board will always be twice the range of coordinates. More if you do 2-D distance, but we can use floating point there (we'd be doing a sqrt() anyway) _______________________________________________ geda-user mailing list [email protected] http://www.seul.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geda-user
