HackFinder - Hacks are little pieces of code that replace or extend functions of the PalmOS.
Usually hacks should be managed by a hackmanager like HackMaster or X-Master, but sometimes they patch the system by themselves, possibly risking conflicts with other hacks/ applications.
For background information on hacks, what they are, how they work and what could happen if you are not careful, be sure to read the article "Everything About Hacks" at www.dseifert.com/hacks.
To help determine whether an application installs a hack, I have written this little application called HackFinder.
It will scan all installed applications for code that installs a hack and will create a report listing these applications along with the PalmOS API call they replace/extend.
Be sure to read the manual to understand how it works and what its report mean.

PowerDict PowerDict - Have you ever noticed how Treo680 auto-fixes some texts you type? Like how "acn" magically becomes "can" and "hvae" becomes "have". There is a list inside the PalmOS that keeps track of what replacements are to be made
PrefsPlus PrefsPlus is an easy to use utility that gives you more preferences
X-Master (Russian) X-Master (Russian) manages PalmOS system extensions (aka Hacks).
X-Master is a free compatible successor to Edward Keyes' Hackmaster and offers various improvements, both technical and in the user interface
MatchHack MatchHack is a hack for easier editing of 'C' or LispMe code (or general text). MatchHack flashes the matching opening 'item' (i.e., parenthesis, brace or bracket) when entering the closing one. It can also be used to find the matching 'item' in existing code. Works in any text field.
Just input your code/text (Graffiti or keyboard doesn't matter)
OffStroke OffStroke is a program that allows you to turn off your Palm OS5+ PDA with a simple pen stroke.
It's similar in concept to SleepStroke (which doesn't work on Palm OS 5 and higher) and Sleep OS5.
OffStroke is distributed freely under the terms of the GNU General Public License (GPL)

FastApp! FastApp! - Launch programs and perform tasks with customizable stylus strokes in your Palm's silk-screen area. You'll never have to use the Palm's launcher again! For example, launch your e-mail by dragging from the "Apps" button to the "Menu" button
JogEverything JogEverything adds to Jog Dial support to many applications that were not written for Jog Dial.
It allows you to scroll up and down in DOC readers, AvantGo, Action Names and more. It should not interfere with any applications that support Jog Dial
Other Software by developer «79bmedia»:
Crash Crash - You remember these nifty dialogs saying "Fatal Exception" or "DataMgr.c, Line 1234, Null pointer passed" with a nice looking "Reset" button at the bottom?
Especially when testing a lot of hacks and new programs I get these dialogs rather often
Crash Pro Even PalmOS applications sometimes crash. Most annoyingly the on-screen reset button often does not work, requiring you to take your device out of its case and perform a manual soft reset. For some devices you may even find yourself in a frantic search for a paperclip to be able to actually do the reset.
Recover ...
But here Crash Pro comes to your aid
ResetEmu ResetEmu - The PalmOS primarily notifies applications of important global events by sending so called launch codes.
The mostcommon launch code is sysAppLaunchCmdNormalLaunch whichtells an application that it should start running.
This isoften the only launch code an application understands - and worse, sometimes the only one it handles properly
