Would anyone object if the score read floating point numbers with
optional exponents?  I ask as I have made a modification here which
shortens the code, but as a side effect introduces "standard" floating
point representation.  Beore i incorporate that I wanted to check that
it woudl make someone happy and not upset others.

PS I have already done it to orc files I believe, but I did not mention it.
