Re: [Gm2] BUG: WriteLongReal failure, shows zero when number is less than 0.1

[Néstor]

Here is the patch!

I have been able to debug the error, and changing the following line works:

--- StringConvert.mod   2008-03-19 11:22:14.000000000 +0100
+++ StringConvert.mod   2008-11-30 14:55:53.000000000 +0100
@@ -746,7 +746,7 @@
          (* add leading zero's *)
          IF Length(s)<LogPower
          THEN
-            s := Mult(InitString('0'), LogPower-Length(s)) ;
+            s := ConCat(Mult(InitString('0'), LogPower-Length(s)), Mark(s)) ;
          END ;
          Result := ConCat(Result, Mark(s))
       END

The only thing now is that some numbers get a value which had to be
rounded. For example:

WriteLongReal(0.001, 8):
==> 0.000999

I'm going to analyze this behaviour.
