Actually enforce the exponent capping, as opposed to only enforcing it
to within a factor of 10. Furthermore, continue to scan the string in
order to check for invalid characters.
Finally, 16384 is too tight of a bound for a binary exponent: it's a
tight bound, but the shift added due to the digit string can move the
cap into the active region (±16383). Thus, change it to 20000 to be
on the safe side.
NASM, the Netwide Assembler.
Many many developers all over the net respect NASM for what it is
- a widespread (thus netwide), portable (thus netwide!), very
flexible and mature assembler tool with support for many output
formats (thus netwide!!).
Now we have good news for you: NASM is licensed under LGPL.
This means its development is open to even wider society of
programmers wishing to improve their lovely assembler.
The NASM project is now situated at SourceForge.net, the most
popular Open Source development site on the Internet.
