My Next Helper Program (updated 7-16-2003)

anyone like any other number cruchers in there or am I all on my own for buildling other pieces to this little puppy?

How about making the programs something that other programs can call and returning results in a way that other programs can display?

Example: A jump calculator where you can pass parameters and get a result back.

People with other programs could then call your program to do a little work and then display the results in their program.

DMF - what you're looking for is a dll file or something similar.

I am writting this and giving it away as promotion for my website. The entire time you're in the suite you see a thing at the bottom that says provided curtesy of and links to my site.

I wouldn't get that kind of promotion with what you're asking for.

I would be more then happy to write something like that if I were getting paid to do it, but not for free.

Though I could put a jump calculator into the suite. Good idea thank you.

So add a license, say it's free to use stand alone and provide a license with the fee you want if people want to include it with something else.

Just an idea.

Actually if you looked at the code, the calculators are all stored in external javascript files and could be pirated anyway.

BTW: I added a jump distance calaculator to the system. The new zip file is attached to this post.

I'd love to have a tool that lets me build a magic item, adding the various enhancements, and it would tell me what the GP/XP cost to build and the market cost would be.
