- Product: Judy's TenKey
-
- Description:
-
- 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, author contact information, and version
- history. This document is also distributed in Windows Write format
- (describe.wri); 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 edit tape entries, causing the tape to
- recalculate, or reuse previous entries in new calculations (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: The scrolling tape provides a natural interface for
- statistical calculations, including average value, sum, or even standard
- deviation. Simply select the desired lines, then press the
- appropriate statistics button.
-
- 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". In fact,
- you can configure Judy's TenKey to automatically insert the decimal point
- for you (a real favorite with professional accountants). 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 thousands
- separators (e.g., "1,000,000" versus "1000000"), 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.
- Plus, Judy's TenKey uses a proprietary algorithm to ensure superior
- precision (try subtracting "750.35 - 750.30" using the Microsoft
- calculator: it doesn't work!). 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.
