Hmmm, yep, you'll definitely need an FPU for the IDE unfortunately, and possibly for the executables produced too. Kinda annoying.

I did start my own little project a few years ago to backport the AB3 includes to Blitz 2.1. It hasn't gone beyond a few partial includes I needed for a particular program, and doesn't cover the graphics ones unfortunately. They make heavy use of some of the AB3 syntax changes, and of other includes, so it's a much bigger task than simply copying them over. Some day I'll get to it...
