SPU HLSW 13.8 contains the following new features:



- rounding can be done in default photometry. It is selected via the

  Detector Constants for Photometry table. The values 0-3 can be chosen,

  with 0 (no rounding) being default.

- normal int rounding in spec mean is correct now. used to simply truncate.

- normal int rounding in photo is correct now. used to round away from 0, 

  now we round up to the next largest int. 

- replaced all integer divisions with roldiv or roldivs

- additional cleanup and commenting

- all combinations of llc/sorting algorithms are now accessible in spectroscopy

- circular buffer bug corrected (exactly full used to report 0 size)

- size 0 protection for asm functions

- buffer reorganization to avoid buffer overflow

- high cpu load protection repaired
