; from BLUEBOOK OF ASSEMBLY ROUTINES FOR IBM PC & XT.
; page : 104
;
; NAME FPOUT
;
; ROUTINE FOR Conversion From Internal To External Floating Point
;
; FUNCTION: This routine displays a single precision floating point
; number on the standard output device as a decimal floating point number.
;
; INPUT: Upon entry a single precision floating point number is is SFPBUFF.
; The single precision floating point number has a 24-bit binary mantissa,
; a sign bit and an 8-bit exponent biased by 128 (Fig 5-3).
;
; OUTPUT: The individual characters of a decimal floating point number
; are sent out through the standard output device. The decimal floating
; point number has a sign character which is blank or minus, followed by
; decimal digits of the mantissa with one embedded decimal point to the
; right of the first significant digit. Following the mantissa is an
; exponent which starts with the letter 'E', then a sign, then a decimal
; number (Fig 5-4).
;
; REGISTERS USED: AX, BX, CX, DX, SI and DI are modified.
;
; SEGMENTS REFERENCED: The data segment contains storage for the variables
; DECBUFF, DECSIGN, DECEXP, FPTMP1 and SFPBUFF.
;
; ROUTINES CALLED: STDOUT, SFP2TFP, DECHALF, DECDOUBL, DECNORM, TDECSHOW
;
; SPECIAL NOTES: Equates are used to shorten address fields.
;
; ROUTINE TO CONVERT FROM INTERNAL FLOATING POINT TO ASCII FLOATING POINT

  1. Very nice! Thank you for this wonderful archive. I wonder why I found it only now. Long live the BBS file archives!

  2. This is so awesome! 😀 I’d be cool if you could download an entire archive of this at once, though.

  3. But one thing that puzzles me is the “mtswslnkmcjklsdlsbdmMICROSOFT” string. There is an article about it here. It is definitely worth a read: http://www.os2museum.com/wp/mtswslnk/
