Combined xbit2xbyte and xbyte2xbit into one program called x2xAIO (separate programs still provided)
Added known bugs to documentation
Added Programs used to Make to documentation

V2.01
Corrected documentation, and removed irrelevant information (Windows info in Linux documentation, etc.).  Executables and source code have not changed.

V2.01f
Fixed a glitch with x2xAIO.exe in which menu options would not register, as well as a text error.
Removed broken v2.0 and v.2.01 from SourceForge

Future Plans:
Fix known bugs
Port to C++ to run under Windows w/o needing .NET or Mono
Port to Java so any OS with JRE can run program, and give Linux users Mono alternative
NISIS scripted installer to provide uninstaller and start menu icons
Add screenshots to readme; possibly convert to different format (odt)


Known Bugs

Numbers must be entered at all times; otherwise the program will crash
If a number greater than 2 is entered, the program will go by option 1 by default.


About Programs

xbit2xbyte and xbyte2xbit are designed as sample programs for programmers new to C# as well as a learning tool for the author.  These two programs also fulfilled a genuine need to convert to xbits (megabit usually) to xbytes (megabytes, again usually) when dealing with things such as cartridge sizes ,which are generally expressed in megabits, and something the author frequently encountered.  Thus, xbit can be used to convert whatever bit (mega, giga, etc.) to whatever byte (again, mega, giga, etc.), and the sister program can be used to convert the opposite way.
