FYI:
Hello,
because It's very hard to post binary files as an mail-attachment, at first a
very big thank you to Sammy (SemWare) for helping me out and let me put the
FppPack stuff on his site for download.
The FppPack works with GUI- and Console-Versions of TSE, *WINDOWS ONLY*
You can download it from here:

What is new in this release
===========================
-Large numbers can also be entered by grouping them with one or more spaces.
This way they may be easier to type and read.
Examples:
---------
Decimal number (base 10)
1234567890.1234
1 234 567 890.1234
Hex number (base 16)
$1122334455667788
$1122 3344 5566 7788
Binary number (base 2)
%1111000000001111111100000000111111111111111111111000000001000001
%11110000 00001111 11110000 00001111 11111111 11111111 10000000 01000001
-Implemented EVAL (EV) command to use the parser from command-line without any
shell.
Examples:
---------
FppCon_x64.exe ev 1 + '10200, 3'
FppCon_x64.exe ev-us-x2-y8-z16-d98 pi / 2
FppCon_x64.exe "ev -nu -d98" scale = 3840 / 1920 : scale - mod(scale, 0.1)
-Minor fixes and improvements
A very brief description of FppPack
===================================
Fpp stands for (F)loating (P)oint (P)arser.
It's a set of macros and exe files to do math and bit manipulating operations.
It contains a lot of functions, to name a few Log() Sin() Tan() Shr() Rotr()
And() Xor() and a lot more.
The way it works is very simple. All the Fpp* macros act as a shell that do the
pre-processing by setting up text files that are passed down to the exe for
evaluation, than do the post-processing of the returned text files and the
presentation of the result.
FppShell macro an expression calculator
FppSum macro is made for simple sum-building
FppSumLine macro is similar to FppSum, but also gives the sum of each line
Short example to show the differences between FppSum and FppSumLine
===================================================================
FppSum FppSumLine
------ ----------
Item ea. Item ea. Sum
+---------------------------------+ +---------------------------------+
|Salad = 0.99 : Salad * 2 | |Salad = 0.99 : Salad * 2 | 1.98
|Bread = 0.39 : Bread * 9 | |Bread = 0.39 : Bread * 9 | 3.51
|Cheese = 0.59 : Cheese * 6 | |Cheese = 0.59 : Cheese * 6 | 3.54
|Chocolate = 2.79 : Chocolate * 3 | |Chocolate = 2.79 : Chocolate * 3 | 8.37
|Peanuts = 2.29 : Peanuts * 2 | |Peanuts = 2.29 : Peanuts * 2 | 4.58
+---------------------------------+ +---------------------------------+21.98
Sum : 21.98

I wish you all a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
