HexCalculator for OS/2 PM
Version 1.03
HexCalculator was designed for software developers who need to
perform hexadecimal calculations or conversions. It also functions
as a standard decimal calculator and supports floating point and
fixed point modes. HexCalculator can be sized to fit conveniently
on your desktop. The font size used by HexCalculator automatically
adjusts as its size changes. Calculations can be entered using
the mouse pointer or keyboard. A lower case 'h' is displayed to the
right of the number when hexadecimal mode is active. To perform
hexadecimal and decimal conversions simply toggle between hexadecimal
and decimal mode using the H/D button or by pressing the CTL-M keys.
See the online help for more information.
