- Instructions
- ============
-
- This application is a collection of useful (to me anyway) conversion
- functions. The idea is not particularly original but I wrote it as I needed
- these at work and I wanted to collect them together into a single program.
-
- The program was written in Acorn ANSI 'C' version 4 and requires CLib v3.75
- or later. It also requires FPEmulator version 2.80 or later and Simon
- Huntingdon's Interface module.
-
-
- Choosing a Conversion
- =====================
-
- Click the MENU button over the Convert window and choose the conversion
- required.
-
-
- Making a Conversion
- ===================
-
- Dead simple! Just enter the value in the appropriate place and press RETURN.
- The contents of either writeable icon can be dragged to another application
- (eg Edit).
