[Lua] Base Converter
« on: January 11, 2012, 05:29:47 pm »
I wrote a base converter in Lua. I realize that there is already some basic support for base conversion and a basic program. This allows you to type in letters and convert to bases other than 2, 10, and 16. I might add fractions, but I don't really know how to do that.

Controls:
Type in letters/numbers
Enter to go to next value
Tab to reset
Backspace to backspace...

No update, but it's pretty interesting how this file is in ticalc's top 25 most downloaded files in the past 7 days :P

My other files have seen their downloads drop from around 80 to 30...
