Especially since Groepaz is right: What you described has nothing to do with
the floating point described in the C standard.

Stefan Haubenthal sent me a mandelbrot program written by Groepaz and modified
by him, which for some reason I don't remember lies in my samples directory
(Groepaz, did I, or did Stefan ask you if it can be used as a demo? I'm always
so forgetful:-). The program uses macros to implement fixed point math. I'm
sure that Groepaz will place it onto the ftp server on request, so you can
have a look at it and see how fixed point math can be done with macros.
