Re: float, double, the DOUBLE_PRECISION flag
I could do the tests but I have still few things to code before I can
run the simulations I want.
Is it a problem to just remove the float/double switch mechanism and fix
Real to double.
That way, we wouldn't have to change our code when Real appears
somewhere, and it would let us an easy way to test something like double
vs longdouble in the future.
I forsee that the answer to the first question will be "yes"... Vaclav
will have to explain that to me again... ;-)
