[En-Nut-Discussion] Floating point in file streams

[Harald Kipp]

Hello Lars,

there will be no separate lib in the future, just libnutcrt.a.

In the current version of the Configurator enabling floating
point support doesn't work. To fix this:

1. Create a file include/cfg/crt.h in your build tree with
the following contents

   #ifndef _INCLUDE_CFG_CRT_H_
   #define _INCLUDE_CFG_CRT_H_
   #ifndef STDIO_FLOATING_POINT
   #define STDIO_FLOATING_POINT
   #endif
   #endif

2. Add
   #include <cfg/crt.h>
at the beginning of crt/putf.c and crt/getf.c.

3. Remove the lines
   "getff.c",
and
   "putff.c",
from conf/crt/crt.nut.

4. Generate the build tree and build Nut/OS.

5. Link your floating point application to libnutcrt.a.

There are simpler ways to do it, but this one will be
compatible to the fixes, which I'm going to commit soon.

Harald
