Whilst browsing through some example source files of .ASM stuff from by
BC++ installation I noticed that one of the example files, which average a
bunch of stuff, had the note:

;  Calls IntDivide() for the final average

And declared it something like:

EXTRN _IntDivide: PROC

I'm not sure about syntax, since I'm not an asm programmer, but you should
understand what it means.

Anyway, does anyone have any idea about what these procedures are?  Are
there prototypes for them hidden somewhere?  They are not in the manual or
online help files....

If they are integer multiply and divide stuff that return floats, I would
probably like access to them.
