scale~ in max5

i'm trying to find the most effective replacement for max6's [scale~] with max5 objects to create a replacement abstraction if the max6 patch is opened with 5. i needs to accept the 5th optional exponent argument to [scale~] and that's not easy for me. help is appreciated.

I used the ll.og abstractions in max 5. It appears that the link on maxobjects.com is no longer good, so I'm attaching them for you.

hey thanks for your suggestions. i think i sorted that one out. here's an abstraction that behaves exactly like scale~ incl. exponential argument.
in case someone uses it you should define the first range from the lower to the higher value only. for the output range hi and lo values can be reversed for inverse mapping.O.
