Thanks for the reference. That's exactly what I wanted to know... what else is out there along the same lines.

I downloaded and looked at his software. Same idea. Though his is Windows-only and demands you convert fractional inches to decimal and then back again for each measurement that is not an exact whole inch. Seems like he removed one annoyance only to needlessly introduce another one. Software that makes you look things up in a table, twice no less, is not very well thought out software.
