DESCRIPTION

       The lsaneglue library contains code to let you call SANE functions  di‐
       rectly from ORCA/C.  To avoid namespace conflicts with <math.h>, it was
       necessary to change <sane.h>.  Thus, all SANE functions  are  now  pre‐
       fixed  with s_.  (For example, annuity became s_annuity, and sin became
       s_sin.)  This lets you choose easily between the SANE and ISO/C  imple‐
       mentations of the same function.

       Below is a brief overview of the functions in lsaneglue.  This overview
       does not replace, however, proper documentation.  To  fully  understand
       SANE, you will need the Apple Numerics Manual.  SANE is also introduced
       in the Apple IIgs Toolbox Reference, Volume 2", Chapter 18.

       It is important that the file <sane.h> is used  as  the  reference  for
       constants  used  for  rounding  direction,  rounding  precision, number
       classes, ordering relations, formatting styles, NaN codes, and for set‐
       tine and testing exceptions,

       In the following list, page numbers refer to the Apple Numerics Manual.

       findfpcp
              This  function  is  specific to the lsaneglue library; it is not
              part of SANE proper and is not documented elsewhere.

              findfpcp will find an FPE (Innovative  Systems'  Floating  Point
              Engine)  or NC (Number Cruncher) card and return the slot number
              in which it resides.  If a card is not found, it will return -1.

              You can use the output of this function as the argument for  the
              ORCA/C  setfpeslot(3)  routine, which is used when having ORCA/C
              create code for  the  FPE/NC  directly  (through  the  directive
              #pragma float 1 1).

SANE TOOLKIT ERRORS

       The fclass functions should return the sign of the passed number in  n-
       bit  and Y. They do not report the sign at all, though, which has to be
       considered a bug.  s_signnum has been rewritten to not rely on  fclassx
       any more.
