Zero Popup’s no-nag tool shelf
A personal index of small programming, Unicode, calculator, and astronomy tools, linked from a page that promises no interruption prompts.
- For
- People needing quick browser-based reference tools
- Worth noticing
- Unicode search can identify pasted characters, while Float Twiddler shows how floating-point numbers are represented in IEEE 754.
Field notes
The homepage groups the links into three shelves: programming and Unicode, calculators, and astronomy. Its descriptions include pasted-character identification, IEEE 754 floating-point representation, date arithmetic, binomial probabilities, and a draggable, zoomable sky map. Graeme Cole identifies himself as the builder and frames the collection as an effort to make the web less disruptive; the supplied evidence is the index and its descriptions, not independent tests of each tool.
