[Tutor] Finally finished my currency exchange program

[Eddie]

Its Windows only as that is what I am more comfortable with and I don't use
Linux (tried and not had much luck with it really). Yes, the installer is
Windows only.

Also, No, I didn't just register on thsi list, I've been registered on this
list for years.
