Intro / How to Use:
The executables run in a MS-DOS environment (run them in a MS-DOS window).  They executables should run in all popular Windows environments and have been tested in Windows NT, 2000 and XP environments using a MS-DOS Window. I have tested these programs very carefully but make no warranty as to their accuracy. Use them at your own risk. By the way, my personal favorite and most used utility is "amort" (short for amortization, this utility calculates loan payments such as those for a home or car).

Source Code:
The source code is written in (Kernighan & Ritchie style) "C" and was written in 1987 before "ANSI C" became a standard.  You may alter the source code but must then take my name off it as I have no way of knowing if your alterations are really improvements or not.  

Terms of Use:
All documentation and source code is available for free if your use it for non-commercial purposes.  Please contact Michael Brochstein if you intend to use this package for commercial purposes.  If you like this package then please make a donation to your favorite charity for whatever amount you feel reasonable as payment for its usage.

To Learn More:
The best way to find out more about this package is to read the Online User Manual. The author can be reached via Michael Brochstein.
