Comment(by bemasc):

 New version of Acoustic Tape Measure.  Updated to include an "Atmosphere"
 toolbar for setting the speed of sound.  Specifically, this toolbar
 accepts user input of the air temperature and relative humidity.  From
 these inputs, it calculates and displays the speed of sound, and uses this
 speed in subsequent distance calculations.  If users know the approximate
 temperature, this greatly increases accuracy; otherwise, it has no effect
 on measurement.

 If you would prefer to change the number of significant figures displayed
 for the distance, I will be happy to make it so.

 Formal Update.1 request is #4845.
