NAME              atof   -- ascii to floating

SYNOPSIS          jsr       r5,atof; subr

DESCRIPTION       atof will convert an ascii stream to a floating number returned
                  in fr0. The subroutine subr is called on r5 for each character
                  of the ascii stream. subr should return the character in r0.
                  The first character not used in the conversion is left in r0.
                  The floating point simulation should be active in either
                  floating or double mode, but in single precision integer mode.
