Okay folks here it is!

The long-awaited next major release of the heralded, feature-rich, Conversion
Pro for OS/2 scientific-engineering units conversion program is now available.
Okay so I'm stretching it a bit, but true story. It's done and its now been
uploaded to ftp://Hobbes.nmsu.edu/incoming/cpwar15a.zip and also to Compuserve
in the OS/2 User Forum Application quest library. The archive is named
cpwar15a.zip. The latest is build 1.502. (Note: If you happen to run into
cpwarp15.zip this is an earlier build without certain features).

New features (since version 1.1) include:
    o Way faster loading
    o Modular data sets
    o button bar for changing data sets and hiding main window
    o Pop-up menu for changing data sets
    o User settings notebook (startup file, colors, etc)
    o Option using the Calculator standalone
    o Fixed the <enter> key bug in calculator
    o Fixed the bug in calculator that disabled main window
    o Cosmetic enhancements
    o misc bugs and code optimization

This is (and has been) the only program of its kind for OS/2. If you are a
scientist, technician, engineer, educator, student, or just an OS/2 junkie
that can't satisfy their downloading jones, go for it. It's non-crippled
shareware, and it's only $10 to register. I would remind previous registrants
that they are automatically licensed for this version.

Thanks to all who previously registered Conversion Pro.
Jon
