(=20.0/0xFFFF) maps -10.0 to 0x0000, 0.0 to 0x7FFF and 10.0 to 0xFFFF.

Using unsigned formats with values ≥ 0x800000 gives different results

on 64 bit machines.

<p class="new">
|
||||
If <code>LINR=="NO CONVERSION"</code> (the default), <code>OVAL</code>
|
||||
is directly converted to <code>long</code> without going through
|
||||
<code>RVAL</code>. This allows for more bits on 64 bit machines.
|
||||
To get the old behavior, use <code>LINR=="LINEAR"</code>.
