Description:

This addin is a radix (base) converter. It can handle conversions between
radix-2 to radix-60, and radix-64.
This addin can also handle big numbers (up to 10000 digits long, radix-16).
There is even a function implemented to copy the numbers as strings, including 
ASM declaration. 
The conversion itself is handled by the MIRACL library, using internal functions.

This addin utilizes the MIRACL library. MIRACL is free for non-commercial use. 
Commercial use fees are pretty expensive though, beginning at 1000 euro for
single user license.

In the words of the author:
"The MIRACL library is Shareware and can be used freely for Academic, 
non-profit making or non-commercial use. Commercial Users must register. 
The term "commercial use" means any for-profit use of the MIRACL library.

My thanks and greets go to  Scott,M. (developer of the MIRACL library),
and of course to the WinASM studio developer, Antonis Kyprianou and all 
the active forum members.
