I needed the calculator because I couldn't be bothered doing the annoying calculations for calculating the BPM/Tempo of a specific Chiptune.

My friend's gone overseas at the moment (I can't compile it, I can only edit source code) so for now we only have the following options available:

(0) exit

(1) Calculate BPM with given clock speed, speed, tempo and lines per beat (fixed, although menu does say it may be wrong)

(2) Calculate BPM with given speed, tempo and lines per beat

I was going to add a hexidecimal calculator built into it but for now we can't because I actually have no clue how to convert it mathematically yet. I've never seen C++ code until my friend gave me the initial sample for me to fix up.

To operate just extract the executable and run it. A console will appear with a menu list. As I said earlier, only options (0), (1) and (2) actually do anything.

Option (2) operates identicle to option (1) except you don't need to place a clock speed in option (2) so I'll give the instructions for option (1):

1. Type "1" to select option (1) or "2" to select option (2) and then press ENTER. Option (0) is to exit.

2. Type your clock speed if asked. 60 is default.

3. Enter in your Fxx Tempo: The current tempo defined by the latest Fxx effect, or at the top if there's no tempo modifications throughout the song. Enter in decimal only, no hexidecimal numbers are supported yet. Default is 150

4. Enter your speed. 6 is default

5. Enter the number of lines per beat. 4 is default.

6. It should spit out the result. Type "0" and enter or hold CTRL+C to exit.
