1 -----------------------------
1 
1 The Vax version of the assembler supports four directives for generating
1 Vax floating point constants.  They are described in the table below.
1 
1 '.dfloat'
1      This expects zero or more flonums, separated by commas, and
1      assembles Vax 'd' format 64-bit floating point constants.
1 
1 '.ffloat'
1      This expects zero or more flonums, separated by commas, and
1      assembles Vax 'f' format 32-bit floating point constants.
1 
1 '.gfloat'
1      This expects zero or more flonums, separated by commas, and
1      assembles Vax 'g' format 64-bit floating point constants.
1 
1 '.hfloat'
1      This expects zero or more flonums, separated by commas, and
1      assembles Vax 'h' format 128-bit floating point constants.
