Unit Scout Portable is a handy tool to have around when you want to convert units and calculate without having to switch between applications.
The software enables you to convert units using any text field editor such as notepad, browser or spreadsheet.
The program does not have an interface and allows you to access all its features by right-clicking on the system tray icon.
The software runs hidden and constantly scans the users keyboard input. When it recognizes a conversion or calculator command it automatically runs and displays the result.
For example, if you are to type in a text field " in>>cm" the software will recognize the convert inches to cm command and will replace that order with the result "2.54cm".
