NAME              ftoa -- floating to ascii conversion

SYNOPSIS          jsr      r5,ftoa; subr

DESCRIPTION       ftoa will convert the floatin9 point number in fr0 into ascii
                  in the form [-]d.dddddddde[-]dd*. The floating point simulator
                  should be active in either floating or double mode, but in
                  single integer mode. For each character generated by ftoa, the
                  subroutine subr is called on register r5 with the character in
                  r0.
