Yup. The problem area I was interested in was printing a l_fp that came from a packet. Converting to a python time (aka double) gets all the python library software but mangles the bottom bits. Most of the time those bottom bits are not important but I don't want to paint ourselves into a corner in case we come up with a case where they are. I agree that a double is OK if we can do a subtract and only need enough bits for a useful difference. -- These are my opinions. I hate spam. _______________________________________________ devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.ntpsec.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
