I've upload fixdec23.zip to the Yahoo files section.
I made some changes that Jens suggested to allow compiling with
Comeau and gcc; and I've made the is_bounded and is_modulo fixes
that Fernando suggested along with interoperatability with
unsigned as well as int.
Fernando,

Hi Bill,
Yes, 'precision' is what I meant.
I used the term' digits' because that's what is used for 'numeric_limits<>',
but I much prefer 'precision'.
There is one thing I noticed though that I'd like you to confirm:
Because of the implementation (a normalized rep with two separate int_type

Thanks for your input.
The "scale" really is intended to be the number of decimal digits
to the right of the decimal point; so, yes, if int_type on your
system is 64 bits, and if you specify a scale of 18, then no
/whole/ decimal digits will be allowed to the left of the point.

Hi, this is my review of the Fixed-Point Decimal Library.
I cannot vote as it is now.
I will vote subject to the resolution of the 'scale' issue I explain below:
Problems with 'scale':

To understand it, I wrote the following function which just creates two
decimals given a
