The material on my website was somewhere between pseudocode and code. The web site is tutorial in nature, and what Vlasenko did is follow my tutorial and adapt a working chunk of code from the many code snippets in the tutorial.
If a signoff from me is required, someone will need to tell me how, since I have no experience with the protocols for Linux code development. I am entirely content with the current form of credit given to me in the code (a comment with a pointer to my web site).
Frankly, I remain a bit surprise that my work has significant payoff on a Pentium. I was motivated by the problems of doing fast binary to ASCII decimal conversion on a brain-dead little microcontroller with an 8-bit ALU.
