   These are NOT monitor routines, they are view routines. I think all the changes are in order and were needed. Yes we have to fix our testing process so one doesn't need to constantly change the output files.

    The reason you see all those zeros is because of the damn lack of proper support for formatting options for __float128 precision. I couldn't leave the %G in some places because with __float128 you get garbage print out.  If you want you can change the %14.12e in the SNES view to %g but then you will need to update the output file yuck.
