                     14: DESCRIPTION    Ecvt
                     15: is called with a floating point number in fr0.
                     16: .sp
                     17: On exit, the number has been converted into a
                     18: string of ascii digits in a buffer pointed to by r0.
                     19: The number of digits produced is controlled
                     20: by a global variable "_ndigits".
                     21: 
                     22: Moreover, the position of the decimal point is
                     23: contained in r2: r2=0 means the d.p. is at the
                     24: left hand end of the string of digits;
                     25: r2>0 means the d.p. is within or to the right
                     26: of the string.
                     27: 
                     28: The sign of the number is indicated by r1 (0 for +; 1 for -).
                     29: 
                     30: The low order digit has suffered decimal rounding
                     31: (i. e. may have been carried into).
                     32: .sp
                     33: Fcvt is identical to ecvt, except that the correct digit
                     34: has had decimal rounding for F-style output of the number
                     35: of digits specified by "_ndigits".
