Every so often I want to derive a fraction from a decimal value, such as 0.571 => 4/7. The key point is I want good approximations, not exact values. That is, I rather get 4/7 than 571/1000. I had found a tool at one point that did it, but it stopped working, so I made my own.

> because anyone could edit anyone's map

Unfortunately, a lot of people started "protecting" their maps, which made it a lot more difficult to truly edit other maps (still easy to insert cheats and somewhat easy to fix bugs).

>It looks like the most comprehensive map archive site went down and never came back up -- all those maps will be lost in time.

epicwar.com's first map was uploaded in Feb 2005. And now there's wc3maps.com, which automatically archives ~all hosted maps.
