- Doug Deep's MegaNum Converter ■ version 1 ■ User Documentation
-
- Freeware from Duane Paulson. A "MegaNum" is what the RIPscrip people call a
- base 36 number. These are used in RIPscrips to allow data to be transmitted
- in a compact format. Unfortunately, base-36 conversions are far from
- intuitive, and in fact can lead to nightmare situations, as in Flag 1 of
- the Button Descriptor, which is a 4 digit MegaNum, bitmapped! In order to
- ease the pain of dealing with MegaNums, this program is presented. It
- accepts input in Binary, Decimal, Hexadecimal, or MegaNum format, then
- translates and displays the values for each of these for base-number systems.
-
- [RIPscrip is a trademark of TeleGrafix Communications, Inc., which had nothing
- to do with the making of this program.]
