I have a Pascal iX program using the HP3000_16 compiler option. This invokes
the MPEV packing algorithm which among other things defines real numbers
differently than 32 bit MPEiX. This causes problems when attempting to pass
real number paramaters to Pause, Fix, DFix etc. The HP Pascal Reference
Manual describes a workaround for Pause. Does anyone have any great ideas
for calling the compiler library routines other than the obvious of not
using the 'HP3000_16'?
Thank you kindly.
