- DISCLAIMER

- I'm not responsible for any damage Numeric Translator could
- cause. However, I tested it on few mashines any I'm pretty *sure* that
- it doesn't have any bug that could freeze the system.

- PREFACE
-
- Everytime when one work in some editor, no matter what kind of
- job it is (programing, coding, writing etc.), one may need a small
- piece of software that only translates numbers from one base to
- another. I have been needing this badly on my Amiga, and NUMERIC
- TRANSLATOR was born!
-
-
- DESCRIPTION
-
- Numeric translator is made only to translate numbers from one
- numeric base to another. It is small and clear and it is perfect for
- running in the background when you're doing something other.
-
-
- USING
-
- Numbers in Numeric Translator are unsigned 32-bit longwords.
- Using is easy: just click on the gadget, enter a number and press
- <ENTER>. The number will be translated to other 3 bases. BIN, DEC,
- OCT and HEX are supported one! I didn't put any other base because the
- use of them is rare, even I never used them.
-
-
- ERRORS
-
- When you enter illegal characted, like '8' in octal base, an
- error is occured. To remove it, enter the right number (or better way:
- just exit the program :)...

-
- WHAT ABOUT EDGAR?
-
- This is a good place to tell you that my friend Edgar (e-mail
- on ivanovxy@math.hr) uses the system which he calls THREENARY SYSTEM
- and it includes only digits 0, 1 and 2. Silly man! What do you have
- to say about that?
-
-
- KEYBOARD
-
- Some keys have a function in program:
-
- <B> ............ Bin
- <O> ............ Oct
- <D> ............ Dec
- <H> ............ Hex
- <A> or <!> ..... about
- <CR> or <?> .... help
- <C> or <DEL> ... clear
- <Q> or <ESC> ... quit

- SHAREWARE
-
- This program is SHAREWARE. If you like it or at least use it
- then, please send a postcard or even a letter to encourage poor
- programmer and inspirate him to make a new version of this one and
- other good utility programs.
