- ABOUT
- -------------------------------------------------------------------
- Master Converter is a powerful Windows utility designed to fill
- onespecific purpose: quickly and easily convert units of
- measurement. The interface is extremely intuitive and user
- friendly, enabling even first-time users to convert from one unit to
- another without a hassle.
-
- Master Converter is pre-configured to convert over 580 units in
- 30 categories. The categories include: length, area, volume, dry
- volume, time, speed, acceleration, mass, density, force, energy,
- power, pressure, flow, data storage, data transfer, dynamic
- viscosity, kinematic viscosity, temperature, temperature interval,
- capacitance, charge, conductance, thermal conductivity, angle,
- angular velocity, illumination, luminance, numbers, and fractions.
- (See List of Pre-Defined Units in the Help file for a complete
- listing of all supported units.)
-
- You'll most likely find any unit you'll ever need already built in
- to Master Converter. If you find Master Converter is missing a unit
- you need, it's a snap to add your own custom units or your own
- custom categories! Master Converter will effortlessly grow to suit
- your needs.
-
- Master Converter is distributed as a shareware software product.
- This gives you the ability to try out the program before you pay for
- it, thus allowing you to see if it fits your specific needs. If you
- find the program useful, you are asked to register the product.
- Registering Master Converter gets you a registration "code" that
- removes the opening wait screen on this and ALL FUTURE VERSIONS of
- Master Converter. Once you register, there is no need to register
- again! (Please see the online help file for the registration form
- and for pricing information.)
-
- Master Converter works with Windows 3.x, Windows 9x, and Windows NT.
- For Windows 9x and Windows NT users, there is a 32-bit version of
- Master Converter available.
-
-
- HOW TO INSTALL
- -------------------------------------------------------------------
- To install, simply run the MC16.EXE (or MC32.EXE if you have the
- 32-bit version of Master Converter) program from within Windows. The
- setup program will install all necessary files to a directory of
- your choice, and then create icons for you.
-
- If you later decide that Master Converter does not fit your needs,
- you may uninstall the program by double-clicking on the "Uninstall
- Master Converter" icon that was created when you installed Master
- Converter. (Windows 9x and NT 4.0 users will find the uninstall
- option in the Control Panel. Double-click on the "Add/Remove
- Programs" item to uninstall Master Converter.)
-
-
-
- HOW TO USE
- -------------------------------------------------------------------
- Double-click on the Master Converter icon to start the program.
- Converting units in Master Converter couldn't be simpler. First,
- choose the CATEGORY of units that you're converting by clicking on
- the appropriate index tab on the bottom of the screen. For example,
- length, area, or volume. PLEASE NOTE that not all of the categories
- may be visible on the screen simultaneously. Because of this, small
- scroll buttons will appear on the index tab, allowing you to scroll
- the index tab left or right.
-
- Next, choose the unit that you're converting FROM, and then the unit
- you're converting TO. For example, if you're converting from
- kilometers to miles, select "kilometer" in the left list box, and
- "mile" in the right list box.
-
- Lastly, type the value you're converting into the text box on the
- left. For example, type "3.5" if you are converting 3.5 kilometers
- to miles. The result will appear in the text box on the right.
- That's it! Master Converter shows that 3.5 kilometers is equal to
- 2.174799173 miles.
