+ | I decided to shut down the Subversion repository (which had been the master repo until now). I still consider Subversion to be the better option for a small project like PDCLib, but I guess it is time to move on. I basically need the practice with Git, so... yea. | ||

+ | Technically it is not that much, but it feels like a huge step forward -- PDCLib now supports printing floating point values using the '' | ||
+ | |||
+ | Why this weird specifier that is not used by anybody out there? Because it is the one that works without changing the base of the mantissa, i.e. this is the one format that avoids all the issues of the other FP conversions. And //having// the ability to print //some// kind of FP output will help immensely when debugging the other conversions. | ||
