SLIDE RULE SOFTWARE (what on earth ???) Yes, there is some interesting slide rule software that allows you to demonstrate and experiment with slide rule operation. Relax, you don't have to load any to actually RUN your slide rule, these are training and experimentation aids. Both shareware and freeware licensed programs are offered here. Let us know if you come across any other good programs we have missed. All of these are Windows applications, and have been tested to work under Win95 (Win 3.1/16 bit apps). For faster loading, these are archived right on our server, to save you numerous steps and delays. The SOFTWARE will appear below shortly! |
