Short: HAM grid locator <-> lati/long (v1.1) Author: grzes@centrum.pasjo.net.pl (Grzegorz Fitrzyk) Uploader: grzes centrum pasjo net pl (Grzegorz Fitrzyk) Type: comm/misc Architecture: m68k-amigaos Polski: ------ MLocator jest malym programikiem, ktory potrafi obliczac odleglosc i kierunek (azymut) miedzy dwoma amatorskimi stacjami radiowymi. Wlasciwosci: - Przelicza wspolrzedne siatki LOC na szerokosc/wyskosc geograficzna oraz w druga strone. - Posiada interfejs graficzny w standardzie MUI. - Obsluguje Tooltypy. - Generuje plik T:Direction w ktorym zapisany jest azymut dla anten. Jesli znasz ARexx'a to latwo Ci bedzie napisac jakis skrypt do wspolpracy z interfejsem rotora. - Moze byc uruchomiony z CLI (bez interfejsu graficznego). - Jest za darmo! English: ------- MLocator is a small utility, which allows to compute distance and direction (azimuth) between two HAM radio stations. Main features of MLocator: - Can compute grid LOC to Longtitude/Latitude and vice versa. - Magic User Interface. - Tooltypes support. - Now generate T:Direction file which contains azimuth for antennas. If you know ARexx then it will be very easy for you to write some script for your rotator interface. - Can work from CLI (without MUI). - It's freeware! History: ------- Version 1.00 - First relase with many bugs and without GUI. Version 1.03 - I changed compiler from SAS C to VBCC and fixed few bugs which vbcc was reported. - Added procedures for computing Distance and Direction. - Added Magic User Interface. Version 1.04 (29.06.1999) - Fixed few bugs. - Added tooltypes. - Added procedure for creating output file T:Direction for controling antena rotator interface. Version 1.05 (1.07.99) - I fixed a bug in Longtitude fields. Longtitude value more than 99.99 don't create letter extension because I set too small gadget width. Version 1.06 (16.07.99) - Fixed bug in CLI argument reading procedure. - Changed e-mail address (my old account is dead so if you sent me any mail, do it again :) - Rearranged GUI. Now I hope looks better. Version 1.07 (18.07.99) - Fixed bug in distance computing procedure. I forgot check minus sign for latitude :( Thanks for report to Laurent (autor of Cibils). Now results computed by MLocator is real (I hope). Now my apology will go to Laurent for my bad note about his Cibils. Version 1.08 (18.10.99) - Changed format of Latitude/longtitude to DD.MMSS (I think it's more usefull than early). - Added bubble help to GUI. Version: 1.1 (19.03.2000) - Fixed few bugs. - Added BetterString support. Now you can copy/paste locator.
