Looking through my random junk pile on my flash drive, I found a lot of little tools I'd never published.

Here's a unit converter (I think from 2010) that converts a lot of units. Some stats:

• 15 categories:
  • Length
  • Area
  • Capacity (volume)
  • Mass
  • Speed (velocity
  • Pressure
  • Energy
  • Power
  • Force
  • Temperature
  • Charge
  • Radiation
  • Time
  • Angle (degrees, radians, etc.)
• 132 different units
• 1,170 different conversions
• 2,975 bytes

Mainly I just like it because it's intuitive. I'm not sure the units I picked were the most useful ones, though. If you try it and find one of the conversions categories is missing a unit you use a lot, please tell me

o.O Wow, I didn't know there were that many units. How did you get that black background behind the word Conversion though?

TI-BASIC menu titles are white-on-black.

Other wise, there is an ASM flag for inverted text that can probably be accomplished with a small Hex program.

Oh, I never actually used the menu command, probably that's why...

It's usually not that great of an idea because using labels in any way tends to slow down the program (I think, not sure).

It does slow down the program, but i think only while jumping and IIRC DCS had a custome lbl/goto routine which was quicker.

And that are a hole lot of units to convert O.o
That mustve have taken long, lol

Dunno of anyone here wants to hear an announcement about a unit converter but ... it's posted to ticalc.org now (download link here).

There's a minor fix for a bug that caused Mass conversion not to show. If you find anything else, please let me know!

There's already that in Omnicalc and zStart makes it even more handy.

Add a converter for converting bases 2,8,10,16,26 etc.

That's a good idea—think I'll add it in.

It might make the program significantly larger though because base conversion works in a very different way. (The six temperature units take up a large part of the program for the same reason.)

My guess would be more like 1k...
So in the programming you just store then like the ratio (exept for temp) and then put them into the same function?
