Japanese Date Converter

Version 1.01 of the Japanese Date Converter is finally complete and
available for download in the Downloads section of the Samurai
Archives Japanese History page
(www.techjapanese.com/samurai/downloads.html). This updated version
will convert the Japanese Era names and numbers to the 'western' year
equivalents as well as the 'western' year to the Japanese era name
and number equivalents. It isn't case sensitive, and long 'O' and 'U'
sounds can be written as either 'o' and 'ou' or 'u' and 'uu'
respectively. The Japanese 'N' can also be written as 'm' where such
a substitution would be logically possible. Apostrophe's can be
omitted after the "N" or left in. Either way.
This version also corrected a few minor mistakes that came up in the
original. Let me know if there are any problems with, or mistakes in
this version.
