For our internal purposes we need a business calculation program.
We only want to use Smalltalk-80 software.

As basic technology we need decimal fixed point arithmetic.
The fiscal office certainly does not accect rounding errors through
foating point arithmetic....

Is there anyone out there in the world who ever wrote an appropriate
numeric class in Smalltalk-80?
