fpprintprec problem



Hello,

 I've got a pb with the fpprintprec variable: even when i set fpprintprec
to a value less than 16 (e.g. 5), the float numbers are still displayed as
with fpprintprec = 0.....for instance sqrt(2.0) gives 1.414213562373095
whereas i would like 1.41421.
Note that i left the fpprec variable to its default value (i.e. 16).

Where have I mistaken ?
