Thanks for the example. A few remarks:
(1) the float format in new Boot is double-float, so you don't need to
say anything special to read double-float
(2) new Boot uses the Lisp read to read constants, so reading the
Lisp formatted float should be straightforward to get in. I'll look
into that.
(3) you can declare variable typs in Boot by specifying their types:
var : type
