	; Note:  This program waits until after calculating all
	; values.  This means that there may be a long pause before
	; any display.  The delay can be over a minute on 486's
	; or slower Pentiums.
	; Note:  It appears that a rounding error can creep into
	; the last 1 or 2 words of display.  In actual usage,
	; probably best to calculate 2 more words than displaying.
	; In this case, the last WORD displays as 209E, but should
	; actually be 209C.
