NOTE:You cannot run compiled applications or non-multitasking-enabled yBasic applications with this tool
IR Messenger IR Messenger - NOTICE: This application is designed to be run under Multitasker 0.99 or higher. Running it under an earlier version of Multitasker may have unexpected results, and it simply won't work if you just run it directly from the "programs" menu. See the README file for instructions
IRDA Tag IRDA Tag - Multitasker 0.99 Enhanced
Note:This program requires Multitasker 0.99(or possibly higher). Other versions may produce unpredictable results, and it will not work just from yBasic's programs menu
This is a basic laser-tag game for the Palm that works using the infrared ports on the Palm devices. It supports all of the basic laser tag features
LegacyRun Run non-multitasking (legacy) applications in Multitasker
ModIt ModIt - This is a Multitasker-enhanced program that allows you to modify assignments in StuffToTurnIn from within Multitasker. It also creates a backup of your data each time you modify it, guarding against mistakes.
