You are looking at the file WINUNITS.TXT.


WinUnits is a units-conversion utility for Windows.  Users can convert quantities of length, area, volume, mass, pressure, temperature, viscosity, energy, transmissivity, hydraulic conductivity, and discharge rate among different measurement systems.

This program is distributed in a single zip-compressed file and consists of two files:

			WINUNITS.EXE
			WINUNITS.TXT


The only file required to run the program is WINUNITS.EXE.  Just copy it to some directory on your hard drive and create a program item in one of Windows' Program Manager groups.  


WinUnits is simple to use.  

	1)  Choose the conversions set that you wish to use, then perform the 		     		     following steps in any order. 

	2)  Enter a value in the input line provided.

	3)  Pick from the drop-down list beside the entry blank what units the quantity is currently
	     in.

	4)  Choose the units to which you want to convert from the drop-down list at right.	

	
WinUnits automatically converts the quantity that you entered when you change the input value, select new units as input or output, or choose a new conversions set.

Pressing the Calc button will run the Windows calculator, providing that it resides on your hard drive in a directory on the MS-DOS path.

The About button displays an about box.

The Exit button quits the program.

I hope that you find this program useful, and welcome any suggestions for changes or additions.  If you find any errors, please let me know as well.
