Highway Manager Pro
v2.62 / by Zorglub.com
Welcome to Highway Manager Pro!
-------------------------------
Highway Manager is a gas mileage application that supports both metric and
imperial measurements.
The program gives multiple statistics:
- liters/gallons per 100 km/miles
- amount per 100 km/miles
- amount per liter/gallon
- km/miles per liter/gallon
- total km/miles
- total amount.
You can also find out how much you spent in a given date range and for a
given category. Mileage can be entered as absolute and relative distances.
Decimal points can be configured. Support for up to 10 currencies.
Support for up to 10 vehicles. The program also supports up to 15
trips per vehicle. A trip allows you to keep track of where your money was
spent and get statistics for the trip only. You can also keep track of car
maintenance and insurance payments and discover the real cost of ownership
of your car. Notes can be attached to any entry, which can function as both
a trip log and to keep track of business mileage to use for tax purposes.
Fast data entry via Graffiti. All data can be exported to host computer with
provided conduit (Windows). Documentation full of examples on usage.
*NEW* Highway Manager now comes with a wireless weather module that that
can download the current conditions and 5 day weather forecast for cities
around the world!
