FEATURES.TXT   ************************* DOS-CALC ****************************


       DOS-CALC is a fully functional calculator program with many useful
       functions not found in other calculator programs.  DOS-CALC is a DOS
       program, but has the files necessary to set up and run in WINDOWS,
       as a full screen DOS window.  DOS-CALC is a program, not a TSR which
       uses precious memory from ALL programs.

       If you use a hand held calculator, you'll prefer to use DOS-CALC!
       DOS-CALC is the perfect tool to use for calculations not requiring
       the power of a spreadsheet.  It has all of the standard calculator
       functions plus many unique features, such as: a straight line linear
       fit, annuity loan payment and balance, trig, log, exponents, constant
       memory registers, a built-in screen saver, on-line help and much more.
       A complete disk manual is also included.

       DOS-CALC has an integrated unit conversion function.  There are over
       600 conversions already entered, but unique to DOS-CALC is the ability
       to add more, up to 500 more!  DOS-CALC also has a unique TABLE feature.
       A number of example tables are also included.  A table is a list of
       items by description and a value.  DOS-CALC allows you to open a table
       and select the value to be returned back to the calculator.  The table
       feature allows you to have an unlimited amount of information readily
       available.  This is especially useful for portable computing (in the
       field).  You can create your own tables (up 100 tables) each containing
       up to 1200 entries.  Tables are simple ASCII (text) files which you
       can easily create with a text editor, spreadsheet or database program.

       Of course, the best feature of DOS-CALC is that it is truly a tape
       display calculator.  It saves your work (180 lines) even after you
       shut your computer off.  You can scroll back and review your
       previous calculations.  The complete tape can be printed on one sheet
       of 8-1/2 x 11 paper or saved as a text file.

       DOS-CALC just got easier to use!  Starting with version 3.0, Microsoft(R)
       mouse support has been added.  Its all automatic.  If you have a
       Microsoft or compatible mouse, DOS-CALC will automatically detect it.
       There's no setup required.  You can easily select any of the functions
       by pointing and clicking.

       The BEST FEATURE of DOS-CALC is its shareware price.  Only $12.00 (U.S.)
       to register your copy and receive your own personalized registration
       number to remove the shareware screen.  Unlike most software products,
       DOS-CALC's registration is a LIFETIME registration.  Your registration
       number will validate future releases of DOS-CALC.  Registered users of
       DOS-CALC will receive written notification of new releases.  You may
       pick up a new release from your local ASP software vendor, ASP BBS or
       acquire a disk directly from DOS-CALC.  The latest version of DOS-CALC
       is always available on CompuServe by typing GO IBMSYS and is located in
       the DESKTOP library section.  The filename is DCALCx.ZIP, where x is the
       current version number (example: DCALC3.ZIP).  Again, your registration
       number will validate your new copy (no upgrade fees required)!

       If you want information at your finger tips and the ability to do
       calculations quickly and easily, DOS-CALC is the program to use!
