- MLocator jest malym programikiem, ktory potrafi obliczac odleglosc i kierunek
- (azymut) miedzy dwoma amatorskimi stacjami radiowymi.
-
- Wlasciwosci:
- - Przelicza wspolrzedne siatki LOC na szerokosc/wyskosc geograficzna
- oraz w druga strone.
- - Posiada interfejs graficzny w standardzie MUI.
- - Obsluguje Tooltypy.
- - Generuje plik T:Direction w ktorym zapisany jest azymut dla anten.
- Jesli znasz ARexx'a to latwo Ci bedzie napisac jakis skrypt do
- wspolpracy z interfejsem rotora.
- - Moze byc uruchomiony z CLI (bez interfejsu graficznego).
- - Jest za darmo!

-
- MLocator is a small utility, which allows to compute distance and direction
- (azimuth) between two HAM radio stations.
-
- Main features of MLocator:
- - Can compute grid LOC to Longtitude/Latitude and vice versa.
- - Magic User Interface.
- - Tooltypes support.
- - Now generate T:Direction file which contains azimuth for antennas.
- If you know ARexx then it will be very easy for you to write some
- script for your rotator interface.
- - Can work from CLI (without MUI).
- - It's freeware!

- History:
- -------
-
- Version 1.00
- - First relase with many bugs and without GUI.
-
- Version 1.03
- - I changed compiler from SAS C to VBCC and fixed few bugs which
- vbcc was reported.
- - Added procedures for computing Distance and Direction.
- - Added Magic User Interface.
-
- Version 1.04 (29.06.1999)
- - Fixed few bugs.
- - Added tooltypes.
- - Added procedure for creating output file T:Direction for
- controling antena rotator interface.
-
- Version 1.05 (1.07.99)
- - I fixed a bug in Longtitude fields. Longtitude value more than
- 99.99 don't create letter extension because I set too small
- gadget width.
-
- Version 1.06 (16.07.99)
- - Fixed bug in CLI argument reading procedure.
- - Changed e-mail address (my old account is dead so if you sent me
- any mail, do it again :)
- - Rearranged GUI. Now I hope looks better.
-
- Version 1.07 (18.07.99)
- - Fixed bug in distance computing procedure. I forgot check minus
- sign for latitude :( Thanks for report to Laurent (autor of
- Cibils).
- Now results computed by MLocator is real (I hope).
- Now my apology will go to Laurent for my bad note about his
- Cibils.
