Unicon is a unit conversion program for length, area, volume, mass, 
speed, energy, pressure, power, time, light, and temperature.
A reference list of physical and mathematical constants is included.
The user can also create and edit a custom conversion file.
 
Unicon runs in Microsoft Windows 3.X and requires the Microsoft 
Visual Basic run-time library VBRUN200.DLL which is supplied with 
Microsoft Windows Ver. 3.1 and is also available from most bulletin
boards.

The data files are organized as follows:

UNICON.DAT	Standard units of measure for conversions.
CONSTANT.DAT	Physical and math constants.
CUSTOM.DAT	User file for conversions.

In order to create a custom file, use a standard text editor like
Notepad or Edit.

On the 1st Line, list the conversion title as you wish it to appear
on the button, e.g. Currency, Tax, Commission, etc.
Decide on a reference unit, e.g. U.S. Dollar.    

On each successive line, list the unit name, a comma, and the 
multiplication factor needed to convert FROM the unit TO the 
reference unit.  For example, a currency file where 100 yen equal
one U.S dollar would look like this: 
  
	Currency
	U.S. Dollar, 1
	Yen, 0.01

Save the file using the name CUSTOM.DAT

Additional constants can be added to the CONSTANT.DAT file using
a text editor.
