Hi Stephane,
<g> it _is_ in scitalk, at the moment only in the #development version,
but i'd guess, that will change in a while.
Hi Pierre, the problem - as Stephane pointed out - is that ScaledDecimal
essentially is a Fraction, which depending on which function you use can
be transformed to Float, iow you _can_ loose precision with it, i'd be
careful and look at the implementations of the functions you use in
Fraction; as far as i can see, ScaledDecimals reason of existence is not
really to make arbitrary precision calculations possible. otoh
ArbitraryPrecisionFloat is a package, that is not really fast, but as
precise as you want it to be (with the implemented functions).

Hi Pierre,
you will find an ArbitraryPrecisionFloat package at sqeaksource that
works eg in pharo3 & 4:
