Description
            Multiple Precision Arithmetic Toolbox(MuPAT) is the convenient quadruple and
octuple precision arithmetic toolbox.

MuPAT is based on Double-Double (DD) arithmetic and Quad-Double (QD)
arithmetic.
DD and QD arithmetic only need double precision arithmetic environment.
MuPAT has the following features:
  Programs can be simply to use DD and QD arithmetic.
    We can use the same operators (+,-,*,/) for double, DD and QD arithmetic.
    We can also use relational operators and several Scilab functions for DD and
QD in the same way as double.
  Double, DD and QD arithmetic can be used at the same time, and also mixed
precision arithmetic is available.
  Independent of any hardwares.
There are two implementations. One is only using Scilab functions, and the other
is a high speed one which calls functions written in C language.

Hi,

The module seems interesting, but does not load:

atomsLoad: An error occurred while loading 'DD_QD-0.2-0':
	File "C:\Program Files\scilab-5.3.3\contrib\DD_QD\0.2-0\etc\MuPAT.start" does
not exist.


Best regards,

Michaël

 To load MuPat into Scilab, you must load the file 'MuPat_win\macros\buildmacros.sce' and
then choose from the Scilab menu 'Execute file with no echo'. You must do this everytime
you want to use MuPat. Works for me.

it looks like when changing the name of the toolbox from DD_QD to MuPAT  some file names
hasn't been changed ! Just rename the file etc/DD_QD.start   as etc/MuPAT.start  and
execute loader.sce
