NAME
       hppac: HPPACADDD(), HPPACCMPD(), HPPACCVAD(), HPPACCVBD(), HPPACCVDA(),
       HPPACCVDB(), HPPACDIVD(),  HPPACLONGDIVD(),  HPPACMPYD(),  HPPACNSLD(),
       HPPACSLD(),  HPPACSRD(),	 HPPACSUBD()  -	 HP  3000-mode	packed-decimal
       library

SYNOPSIS
DESCRIPTION
       This set of calls invokes the library functions for emulating 3000-mode
       (MPE  V/E)  packed-decimal  operations.	These functions are in library
       which is searched when the option is used with or ld(1).

	      Performs packed-decimal addition.

	      Compares two packed-decimal numbers.

	      Converts an ASCII representation to packed-decimal.

	      Converts a binary representation to packed-decimal.

	      Converts a packed-decimal number to ASCII.

	      Converts a packed-decimal number to binary.

	      Performs packed-decimal division.

	      Performs packed-decimal division (alternate routine).

	      Performs packed-decimal multiplication.

	      Performs a packed-decimal normalizing left shift.

	      Performs a packed-decimal left shift.

	      Performs a packed-decimal right shift.

	      Performs packed-decimal subtraction.

       For all operations, the value returned in the  variable	to  which  the
       compcode argument points is one of the following values of type

	      Result > 0 or operand1 > operand2

	      Result < 0 or operand1 < operand2

	      Result == 0 or operand1 == operand2

       For  all	 operations,  the  value returned in the variable to which the
       pacstatus argument points is one of the following values of type	 Their
       meanings are intended to be obvious:
