Hello, again.

Are there standard functions such as FLOAT and TRUNC for conversion to/from 
SHORTREAL/REAL/LONGREAL?

If not, can VAL(LONGREAL, ...) and so forth be used?

I am planning to test SHORTREAL/REAL/LONGREAL.

So far, this is what gm2 versions of Machar yield as machine constants for 
floating-point:

(Created by converting machar.c to three gm2 versions, one each for
SHORTREAL, REAL, LONGREAL)

(* SHORTREAL = float *)
ibeta =           2
it =              24
irnd =            5
ngrd =            0
machep =         -23
negep =          -24
iexp =            8
minexp =         -126
maxexp =          128
eps =   0.1192092E-6
epsneg =   0.5960464E-7
xmin =  0.1175494E-37
xmax =  3.4028234E+38
