In QuickC Version 2.00 it is now possible to use the coprocessor
libraries from within the QuickC environment.
As documented in the QuickC Version 2.00 README.DOC file, you need to
set the CL environment variable to use the co-processor libraries, as
follows:
CL=/FPi87
When you compile within the environment, QuickC invokes the QCL
command-line compiler that looks at the CL environment variable for
any options that are set. When it sees the /FPi87 switch, it knows to
invoke the co-processor libraries.
This was not possible in QuickC Version 1.x because of the core
library needing the emulator math package. In QuickC Version 2.00,
the core library is gone so there is no restriction to the emulator
math package.
