Super Conversions 5.0
Copyright 1992-1994 by Matt E. Hart
Super Conversions 5.0 (SCVS) is a package with over forty-eight hundred
conversions in the Shareware version alone! Once registered, you will enjoy
over twenty-six thousand! SCVS is the definitive Distance, Area, Volume,
Weight, Power, Pressure, Time, Temperature, Energy, Force, Acceleration,
Illuminance, Concentration, Electrical Current, Hydraulics, density,
velocity, and viscosity conversion system. With the fast, simple point and
click method of instant conversion, you will find that it is also the
easiest to use. Some programs include simple English to Metric conversions
with limited choices and seperate entry methods for each conversion desired.
SCVS goes far beyond this simple approach with a powerful, fast algorithm
built in to make conversions quick and easy.
Shareware refers to a group of software marketed with trust in mind. That
is, the author allows a user to freely utilitize a version of the program,
often with disabled features, in the expectation that the user will desire to
upgrade to the complete program at a nominal price. This version of the
program has disabled all except Distance conversions. By clicking on the
disabled versions, you can see the conversions available, but cannot access
them. For the very small price of $15.00 U.S., you receive the complete
package, which also disables the messages at the beginning and end of the
program.
If you have any suggestions or additional measurements you wish to see,
include them with your order, along with a sample conversion from your
addition to any one of the already supported measurements. Your addition
will be included in your update. For example, adding "Feet" to the distance
conversions. Write "1 Foot = .3048 Meters". Extend the conversion to
however many decimal places you can. If you have a suggestion for an
entirely new category, please include it along with some samples and sources
for information.
NOTE that the SCVS.DAT file must be in the same directory as the SCVS??.EXE
file.
SC is written with Visual Basic 3.0 and requires the VBRUN300.DLL library to
be in your Windows default directory. This file is available on most BBSs
and is included with your registration.
For CompuServe users, VBRUN300.DLL is located in the MSBASIC forum in library
1 under the name VBRUN3.EXE.
