WHATS.NEW ********************** DOS-CALC ************************** Page: 1
DOS-CALC has just been accepted by the ASP as a member. Version 3.0 includes
the ASP logo and the OMBUDSMAN statement. Please read the OMBUDSMAN
statement. The ASP does everything within its power to assure that members
are reputable and will stand behind their products. DOS-CALC is now a
member of this reputable group.
|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| DOS-CALC has adopted a One Time (LIFETIME) registration policy. You only |
| need to register DOS-CALC once. The author will send you a registration |
| number which will validate your copy of DOS-CALC. This number will also |
| validate any future releases of DOS-CALC! |
|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| Only register once! Upgrades only cost what the duplication cost are. |
| DOS-CALC is aiming its sales totally at new customers, not by making |
| existing customers pay and pay again. Please support DOS-CALC in this |
| effort. |
|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|

WHATS.NEW ********************** DOS-CALC ************************** Page: 2
Over 400 conversions have already been entered into DOS-CALC. Chances are,
the conversion you might need is already there. If it's not, you can add
your own conversion(s)! There's room to have a total of 1200 conversions.
Tables can be created by entering in information from a text editor or
out putting information directly from a spreadsheet or database program.
DOS-CALC will handle up to 100 tables, each containing up to 1200 entries.
A number of sample tables have been included.
Incorporating these features into DOS-CALC, there is no need to exit and run
a separate conversion program, look up a conversion or look up a value in a
table. They are accessible right in DOS-CALC and return the value directly
to the DOS-CALC calculator for your next math operation.
Both of these new features have been made to be user modifiable (open
architecture). You can create your own tables and/or add your own conversion
data. This will allow you to have a wealth of information right at your
finger tips, when you need it. This is particularly handy for portable
computing. You can save price sheet, specification tables or whatever
before leaving on a sales trip. You can enter in performance criteria,
operating data, etc. before leaving on a service trip. You can set up a
budget table for your own personal budget. All of the information you need,
can be available when you need it - when you're performing calculations.
A DOS SHELL function has been added to allow another program to run without
having to leave DOS-CALC. You may also define a program to run when the
DOS SHELL function is selected.
DOS-CALC automatically saves the tape information when you exit the program.
The next time you run DOS-CALC, it's just as you left it the previous time.
Every effort has been made to keep DOS-CALC as quick and simple to operate
as possible.
Every function available is listed on the screen. There is no need to
"remember" anything. Help with any of the functions or features is available
by simply pressing the F1 key.
