RE: Convert exponential F to Display F

[William F. Weiher III]

I found it easier to use FplBase10Info and generate my own formatting.

Subject:        Convert exponential F to Display F

I've written some really _ugly_ code to convert a string from exponential
format
as returned by the Float Manager FlpFToA call to a display format suitable
for humans.

I must admit my string processing skills in C are not good.  Would anyone
care
to take a stab at a clean way to convert from

   [-]x.yyyyyyyye[-]zz

to

   [-]x.y

Thanks,
