package.

License type: lppl

Announcement text:

   (1.08a: )
   1. improved efficiency of the basic conversion from exact
  fractions to floats, giving speed gains especially for 
  the power function; 3.1415^30 as a float is now 
  within the package powers (sic),
   2. the comparison routines handle much better inputs with
  big powers of ten,
   3. the xintseries package has macros for floats,
   (1.08: )
   4. square root extraction, both for floats, and in a variant
  for integers.
   5. new package xintbinhex.sty for expandable conversions of
  arbitrary length data to and from binary and hexadecimal.

   Many improvements to the pdf documentation.
