Whilst updating some of my software on Plingstore I noticed a rather good feature in it, which is a donate button.
It is a good way to support developers of free software, with just a click of a button.

Swap and Convert Comes To Currency
A new button has been added to Currency which is a Swap and Convert button. Which swaps the from and to currencies around and gets the exchange rates at the same time.
Also the currency symbol for Ethiopia has been added.
Currency Symbols Comes Currency
My currency application Currency has been updated to version 1.05 with a sprite of the currency symbol if it is known under the Country Info section. Also menu ticks on items selected and on the from and to menus items selected on the other menu is greyed out.
I will add missing currency symbols when I find them or people give me them.
This application requires Wget and a working internet connection with the data coming from The Free Currency Converter API site.
Seemingly Abandoned Software
Much of my software has had no updates for many years, even more than a decade, they are not abandoned, just that I’m not sure what needs doing to them.
If and when I think of improvements or someone suggests an improvement I will look at implementing it.
Announcing RandUser
The first release of RandUser has been released, RandUser is an application for creating random user data like a Lorem Lipsum for for people rather than text.
The in formation comes from https://randomuser.me/ and requires wget to work.
This application is useful for people who need to create forms and databases with people data.
The release of this was hinted at Yesterday.
Writing a manual
I’m in the middle of writing a manual for a he application I have just finished writing.
The English version is completed, just have to do the German and Dutch versions.
Then I will release it.
I hate writing manuals.
