The program has been tested on Windows (98, NT, 2K, XP). Although it has not been verified, it will more than likely run on Windows 95 and ME, also. Converber has been designed using AutoIt v3. There is some overhead (~100 kB) of using such an easy scripting language. However, Converber is still relatively small (~1003 kB) and stand-alone with no external .dll files or registry entries required (If using setup executable, one registry key is added to the Uninstall directory used for the Add or Remove Programs control panel applet). An ini file is created in the directory to store the units, categories, and conversion equations. There are also several LNG files available to allow users to select between different interface languages. And finally, an ini file is created in the program directory to store some of the last used settings, but can be deleted if necessary. This makes a perfect program to keep on your USB drive!

 

Best of all, Converber is FREE.
