     ShortFloats represent rational numbers with limited precision.
     They use the C-compiler's 'float' format, which is usually the IEEE single float format.

     ShortFloats give you 32 bit floats.
 
     Notice, that ST/X Floats are what Doubles are in ST-80 and ShortFloats are
     ST-80's Floats respectively. The reason was to make ST/X's floats compatible

     Thus, STX's Float precision is not worse than that of other ST's.
