What is iMalc?
-------------
iMalc is designed to be a cool looking yet extremely functional replacement for the standard Apple
calculator. It offers more functions and allows you to customise its appearance to complement your
flavour of iMac, iBook, PowerBook, G3, G4 or platinum Mac.
iMalc features include 18 mathematical functions in addition to the basic operators and a saveable
memory.
Functions available:
* Base10 (common) logarithm and inverse, 10^x
* Natural logarithm and inverse, e^x
* Sine, cosine, tangent and their inverses arc sine, arc cosine and arc tangent
* Square root, x^2, yth root of x, x^y, 1/x
* Percent, Pi and +/- keys
iMalc also has memory plus, minus, recall and clear buttons. The trig functions may be calculated in
degrees, radians or grads.
iMalc supports drag and drop and copying and pasting to and from the display window. It comes
complete with a 71-page manual in Adobe Acrobat pdf format.
Calculate Different
-----------------
Customise iMalc to complement your flavour of iMac, iBook, PowerBook, G3, G4 or platinum Mac. The
key and display colours change to your favourite flavour.
Choose between Bondi Blue, Blueberry, Grape, Lime, Strawberry, Tangerine or Graphite Special
Edition.
iBook owners can choose between Blueberry, Tangerine and Graphite, PowerBook owners have the choice
of the original Charcoal or the Bronze keyboard Lombard, while G3 and G4 owners are catered for as
well as those with an original Platinum Mac.
iMalc remembers the value stored in memory, the flavour and window position on quitting.
Versions are available for Macintosh PowerPC, 68k and fat binary (runs on both PPC and 68k).
iMalc is shareware and costs just US$15. The registration fee covers all future upgrades. It is
available from the Eyecatcher Productions web site at
System Requirements
-------------------
iMalc runs under Mac OS 7.1 and later. It may work on earlier system versions. iMalc has been tested
on a PowerBook G3 and iMac running Mac OS 8.5.1, a G3, iMac and 4400 running 8.6, a 7100/80 running
7.5.3 and a Colour Classic running 7.1.
It requires approximately 4.5Mb of RAM with virtual memory turned off or 4Mb of RAM with virtual
memory turned on, and 3.5Mb of hard drive space. You can get by with 2.3Mb of RAM, but if you cycle
through all the flavours, you will need 4.5Mb of RAM.
iMalc displays best with thousands or millions of colours and using Charcoal as the system font.
