Tiny BASIC started out as a way to get a BASIC running in the minimum amount of memory space (~2 KBytes), because RAM used to be very expensive and home computers would only have a few KB of RAM back in the 1970's
CondInst CondInst is a developer tool used during installations of conduits. Instead of creating a new CondInst.dll and pci.exe pr. conduit, you can most of the time just use CondInst.
CondInst requires a meta file describing the conduit to install/uninstall. The meta file must be created in a text editor such as Notepad or Vim

JAddressCSV2PDB JAddressCSV2PDB - A Java Jar File to create the built-in AddressDB.pdb for the Palm. It should be compatible with all kinds of Palm os. Up to now the file format of the AddressDB has not been changed. Use Address2CSV to generate the IFO file. The ifo file is supposed to be called like the CSV file with the suffix IFO (Example: CSVFile.CSV -->> CSVFile.CSV

Other Software by developer «Nathan Whitmore»:
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.
Note that this application requires both Multitasker 0.99(or posibly higher) and StuffToTurnIn v.2.0 or higher
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
Multitasker Multitasker - This program allows you to run 4 multitasking-enabled yBasic applications at the same time(three in the background and one in the foreground).
NOTE:You cannot run compiled applications or non-multitasking-enabled yBasic applications with this tool
StuffToTurnIn StuffToTurnIn - This is a program designed to remind you to turn in assignments. It creates lists ofg the assignments that are due for each day of the week and the period when they are due. You also tell it when each of your periods start, so it will beep when a period starts and you have something to turn in
MultiTunes MultiTunes - This program allows you to play propietary music files in Multitasker. The music format is highly compressed, so files usually ake up less than 32 kilobytes. This program also supports background playback, so you can use other Multitasker applications while listening to your music
Battery Estimator for Palm OS Battery Estimator for Palm OS - This program checks your Palm's battery level and converts it into an estimation of how long your Palm's battery will last based on a calibration to your specific device.. It is also Multitasker-enhanced, so you can see how much power you have left in any Multitasker application.
NOTICE:This application requires Multitasker 0
FingerReader FingerReader - NOTICE:This application requires Multitasker 0.99 or higher in order to run
This is a fingerprint-reading simulator for your Palm, similar to Thumb Scan or Fingerscan
