- JUDY'S TENKEY(TM)
-
- Judy's TenKey makes your calculations easier and more reliable. If you use
- the default Windows calculator, you'll find that Judy's TenKey gives you
- many advantages (see below). If you're still using an old-fashioned desktop
- calculator, you'll love the integration Judy's TenKey gives you with your other
- Windows applications.
-
- This document provides a brief description of program capabilities,
- installation instructions, and author contact information. A Windows Write
- version of this document is available with the distribution (you may
- find it easier on the eyes).
-
- PROGRAM CAPABILITIES
-
- HISTORY TAPE: Records your calculations in a scrolling list which you
- can save, print, and resize (a real help in keeping track of your calculations).
- You can also reuse tape entries, saving typing and reducing errors.
-
- SELECTABLE SYNTAX: Judy's TenKey can process numbers like a
- scientific calculator (RPN), an adding machine, or a normal calculator. If
- you are familiar with one and not another, you know how difficult and
- frustrating it can be to try to switch. Perfect for accountants, engineers, and
- you.
-
- CUSTOMIZABLE DISPLAY: You can decide how you want your TenKey
- to look (selecting from tape, memory, statistics, functions, trigonometry,
- finance, and number pad options), enabling you to optimize screen usage.
- Any TenKey function can always be activated via the keyboard regardless of
- the current display configuration.
-
- FINANCIAL CALCULATIONS: Judy's TenKey calculates monthly
- payments for most loans (e.g., cars, houses, etc.), expected investment
- growth, necessary retirement savings, inflation adjustment, and more.
-
- STATISTICS: Judy's TenKey calculates standard statistics for highlighted
- tape entries, including average value, sum, and standard deviation.
-
- KEEP ON TOP: You can set Judy's TenKey to stay on top of all other
- windows, so you quickly calculate something even when editing a document
- full-screen.
-
- DECIMAL SETTING: You can set Judy's TenKey to display the number of
- decimal positions you prefer, ranging from 0 to "as needed". If you
- frequently deal with money, you might want to set the decimals to 2 (for
- cents) or 0 (for dollars).
-
- INTELLIGENT COPY & PASTE: You can copy tape entries to other
- applications, including Microsoft Word, Excel, and Notepad. You can also
- paste input from these applications. If extraneous text and special formatting
- are mixed in with your numbers, Judy's TenKey uses heuristic reasoning to
- extract and interpret appropriate information.
-
- EXTRA TOUCHES: Judy's TenKey remembers your favorite screen
- position and displays itself there every time. It also uses commas for
- moderately large numbers (e.g., "1,000,000"), displays negative numbers in
- red, and allows you to use the backspace key to edit results for further
- calculation. When in scientific mode, it provides an unlimited stack.
-
- BETTER PERFORMANCE: Judy's TenKey enables you to work faster and
- more reliably. Once you can see (and reuse!) the numbers in your
- calculations, you will never return to the default Windows calculator. We're
- so sure that you'll love using Judy's TenKey that we invite you to try it for
- free. Simply send in the registration fee if you decide to keep
- it.
