+<DT>1.
+<DD>The first three ``fields'' in STRING are degrees, arcminutes,
+arcseconds, separated by spaces or commas. The degrees field
+may be signed, but not the others. The decoding is carried
+ out by the sla_DFLTIN routine and is free-format.
+ <DT>2.
+<DD>Successive fields may be absent, defaulting to zero. For
+ zero status, the only combinations allowed are degrees alone,
+ degrees and arcminutes, and all three fields present. If all
+ three fields are omitted, a status of +1 is returned and DRESLT is
+ unchanged. In all other cases DRESLT is changed.
+ <DT>3.
+<DD>Range checking:
+ <UL>
+<LI> The degrees field is not range checked. However, it is
+ expected to be integral unless the other two fields are absent.
+<LI> The arcminutes field is expected to be 0-59, and integral if
+ the arcseconds field is present. If the arcseconds field
+ is absent, the arcminutes is expected to be 0-59.9999...
+<LI> The arcseconds field is expected to be 0-59.9999...
+<LI> Decoding continues even when a check has failed. Under these
+ circumstances the field takes the supplied value, defaulting to
+ zero, and the result DRESLT is computed and returned.
+ </UL>
+ <DT>4.
+<DD>Further fields after the three expected ones are not treated as
+ an error. The pointer NSTRT is left in the correct state for
+ further decoding with the present routine or with sla_DFLTIN
+ <I>etc</I>. See the example, above.
+ <DT>5.
+<DD>If STRING contains hours, minutes, seconds instead of
+ degrees <I>etc</I>,
+ or if the required units are turns (or days) instead of radians,
+ the result DRESLT should be multiplied as follows: <BR>
