-Package Overview for SoftFloat Release 2a\r
-\r
-John R. Hauser\r

-\r
-SoftFloat is a software implementation of floating-point that conforms to\r
-the IEC/IEEE Standard for Binary Floating-Point Arithmetic. SoftFloat is\r
-distributed in the form of C source code. Compiling the SoftFloat sources\r
-generates two things:\r
-\r
--- A SoftFloat object file (typically `softfloat.o') containing the complete\r
- set of IEC/IEEE floating-point routines.\r
-\r
--- A `timesoftfloat' program for evaluating the speed of the SoftFloat\r
- routines. (The SoftFloat module is linked into this program.)\r
-\r
-The SoftFloat package is documented in four text files:\r
-\r
- softfloat.txt Documentation for using the SoftFloat functions.\r
- softfloat-source.txt Documentation for compiling SoftFloat.\r
- softfloat-history.txt History of major changes to SoftFloat.\r
- timesoftfloat.txt Documentation for using `timesoftfloat'.\r
-\r
-Other files in the package comprise the source code for SoftFloat.\r
-\r
-Please be aware that some work is involved in porting this software to other\r
-targets. It is not just a matter of getting `make' to complete without\r
-error messages. I would have written the code that way if I could, but\r
-there are fundamental differences between systems that I can't make go away.\r
-You should not attempt to compile SoftFloat without first reading both\r
-`softfloat.txt' and `softfloat-source.txt'.\r
-\r
-At the time of this writing, the most up-to-date information about\r
-SoftFloat and the latest release can be found at the Web page `http://\r
-HTTP.CS.Berkeley.EDU/~jhauser/arithmetic/SoftFloat.html'.\r
