Integral types borrow the infrastructure of real types which are a -1995 feature that I was missing. I simply chose to implement the real/realtime support in a way that byte/int/longint will be easy to implement as well. I also intend to use those types internally to improve performance of existing 4-value code. I hope to detect usage of "integer", for example, where I can transparently substitute int/longint and improve runtime performance. And runtime performance is the most important issue for me. I have a day job design that needs to go lots faster. [EMAIL PROTECTED] said: > How about a documentation on features and best usage in Icarus > Verilog? Did you need any help I could give?

I have a day job to keep track of, and a growing bugs database to keep up with. The README.txt file has some notes on non-standard things that are added, as does the ieee1364-notes.txt file. No comprehensive "book", though. It's a matter of finding the time, especially given all the other requests you made earlier:-) If you want to follow development of Icarus Verilog, watch the geda-dev list. -- Steve Williams "The woods are lovely, dark and deep. steve at icarus.com But I have promises to keep, steve at picturel.com and lines to code before I sleep, http://www.picturel.com And lines to code before I sleep."
