;; Format floats for display with exponent which is a multiple of 3.
;; fpprintprec is honored. The global flag engineering_format_floats
;; (true by default) enables this format which can be disabled for
;; certain number ranges using engineering_format_min and
;; engineering_format_max.
;;
;; If engineering format floats aren't welcome for numbers
;; between 0.01 and 1000 this can be signalled to engineering-format
;; by setting
;;
;;   engineering_format_min: .01$
;;   engineering_format_max: 1000$
;;
;; Example:
;;
;; load ("engineering-format.lisp");
;; for fpprintprec : 2 thru 6 do print (makelist (float(%pi) * 10^n, n, -10, 10));
