/*
**  ATOF -- ASCII TO FLOATING CONVERSION
**
**	Converts the string 'str' to floating point and stores the
**	result into the cell pointed to by 'val'.
**
**	The syntax which it accepts is pretty much what you would
**	expect.  Basically, it is:
**		{<sp>} [+|-] {<sp>} {<digit>} [.{digit}] {<sp>} [<exp>]
**	where <exp> is "e" or "E" followed by an integer, <sp> is a
**	space character, <digit> is zero through nine, [] is zero or
**	one, and {} is zero or more.
**
**	Parameters:
**		str -- string to convert.
**		val -- pointer to place to put the result (which
**			must be type double).
**
**	Returns:
**		zero -- ok.
**		-1 -- syntax error.
**		+1 -- overflow (someday).
**
**	Side Effects:
**		clobbers *val.
