-
- README.TXT file for Convert It! SE v3.0b
-
- ----------------------------------------
-
- Warning:
- If you are using version 3.0 or 3.0a, installing this version will
- reset all conversions back to their default settings. Make note of
- any changes you have made before installing this updated version.
-
- Convert It! SE version 3.0b requires Windows 3.1. If it is installed on
- a Windows 3.0 system, it will not run.
-
- Version 3.0b is a minor bug fix of Convert It!. Registered users of
- any 3.x version may upgrade free (plus $3.00 s/h). Registered users of
- versions prior to 3.0 may upgrade for a minor upgrade fee. See ORDER.TXT
- for ordering information.
-
- Version 3.0 adds significant new features to Convert It!. You can now
- add, change and delete conversion factors and/or conversion units. You
- may also turn the conversion groups on and off. Within each conversion
- group you can turn on and off (as well as change the order) individual
- units. You can set up a Custom conversion group that you define. (The
- Pro version can have up to 15.) One new group has been added bringing
- the total to 15. (The Pro version adds 15 others.) The dialog that
- allows changing and adding conversion factors has been re-written to
- provide much more ease of use.
-
