[RELEASE] Unit Converter v0.1

[Access_Denied]

I'm releasing my first application. It's a unit converter. Right now, only has support for length conversions but more support will be added. Very easy to use. Please report any bugs, comments or questions here.

TODO:
Better Graphics -- Any one want to donate some?
Area Support
Weight Support
Volume Support
Temperature Support -- Should be included in next update in a day or two.

Hope's it usefull.

1.00/eLoader

1.5

Sorry it has a rapidshare link, sendspace.com isn't working.

P.S. I haven't actually tried this on my PSP, the USB cable is broken. But I tried it using LUA Player for windows and it worked fine. Let me know if something doesn't work on the PSP.

Please replace this script with the one in the download. I just patched a simple bug. You'll have to rename it from "script.txt" to "script.lua"

could you use megaupload? And good work!

ditto
everything starts with simple easy programs

I can't upload it again right now. I'm stuck with my cousin's dial-up and it takes too long too upload. But it'll probably be on the PSPU frontpage.

Why does everyone hate rapidshare? Is there something wrong with it?

RapidShare gives you a limited amount of times you can d/l from it, i have reached that limit.

[Access_Denied]

Oh. I don't download from rapidshare that often, so it isn't a problem for me. From now on, I'll use sendspace or megaupload.

Sendspace Link: http://www.sendspace.com/file/ai1q8j
Just thought that would help.

[Access_Denied]

Thanks. For some reason sendspace wasn't working for me.

Yes, I'm sure this could easily be done in your head. But last time I checked, not a lot of people have all the conversion equasions memorized. And what if you have something like

2.3048 Miles is equal to ?? Kilometers

First off, you would have to know that

1 Mile is equal to 1.609344 Kilometers

then you would have to work out this eqasion in your head

2.3045 * 1.609344 =

It would be easier to use this program. And if you think it would be so easy, don't use this program. Nobody is forcing you to.

EDIT: Thanks Grimfate126 for helping out with graphics. I'm a terrible artist, and hate working with graphics.

its a good app, but umm we do have a calculator emulator..zx81s..

Yeah, but it doesn't have the equasions built in. And this would be easier to use. I really don't care if anyone uses it. I just wanted to take a break from my main project, and my cousin told me I should make a unit converter. So I said, "Why not".

Just make any kind of background. Maybe just a design with a frame in the middle where I could put the text. I'm just going to move the text around according to your graphics. I suck at being creative too. That's why I'm a terrible artist.

That's cool. And of course you will be included in the credits.

[Psypher]

My simple skin for it.


Suggestions:
* Tap up/down to go one digit up/down; hold to scroll through quickly (or by intervals of ten).
* Apply the same logic as above to the numbers past the decimal point

This would help greatly, so you can search it up quick, but also precisely!

Nice app, looking forward to your future builds!

thats cool! but red PWNS silver/black anytime, anywhere (i wonder where?), anyday, anyweek, any year, any sceond, any millisecond.

[Access_Denied]

Thanks for the skin Psypher, but I'm not going to include a skin until the next release. I'll wait until Grimfate126 posts his skin until I decide which one I'm going to use. But someone else might post a skin so I don't know.

EDIT:Psypher, I'll try to implement your suggestions. But I don't know if there's a way to detect whether you're holding the button or just pushing it.

Just add an initial delay, so when you hold down the (up/down/left/right) button, it'll go up (for example) one digit *pause for half a second* then scroll up by intervals of 10 or just scroll really fast.

Check out the XMB in the Memory Stick section, and you'll see what I mean. Just scroll through by holding down/up and you'll notice an initial delay (hardly noticeable, but noticeable nonetheless); it'll then proceed through the list of games quickly.

I hope you understand what I mean

[Access_Denied]

I know what you mean, but I don't think it's possible in LUA. I'll go ask in the LUA help thread now.

[Chathurga]

I made a background for this app, I'll make an icon tomorrow if you want.

[Maniakc]

milimetres to centimeters -> it says 100 centimeters is equal to 10 centimeters
I think it meens milimeters!

Thanks, good job, now I dont need to google different units
Im using this in math class!

[Access_Denied]

Thanks Josey's Penis, I appreciate everyone who makes an image for me. I'll wait another day or two to see how many other graphics are posted. Then I'll choose one.
BTW- I would appreciate if someone could make an icon too. Incase you didn't notice, all I have is a black background with the woud's "Unit Converter". I think the size is 144x82.

I can do it

[Access_Denied]

Thanks for the tip Maniakc. I fixed it and attached the fixed script to the first post. Please report any more bugs.

Its a crappy Icon, but it beats the regular black one!

[Access_Denied]

BTW- About using this in math class, I also plan on adding in some equations for areas of shapes and volumes of shapes. But this won't come until I'm finished with the conversion part.
