FindHack is a replacement for the Palm OS Find function. It is compatible with handhelds based on Palm OS 3.3 to Palm OS 5.
Version 4.0 is a complete rewrite and works on Palm OS 3.3 through 5. Its powerful features make it an essential utility for everyday use. Here are some of the features you get with FindHack:
Remembers the last searches you did (configurable, up to 30 recent search terms can be stored)
Lets you preconfigure an unlimited number of favorites, with their search rules
Lets you select where the search will be performed: in all applications, in built-in applications (Address Book, Date Book, To-Do List, Memo Pad, Mail, Expense), the current application, the current text field or user-defined application sets.
Lets you find a text even if it is not at the beginning of a word. Palm's standard Find function does not allow this.
Wildcards can be used when searching:
Use the question mark (?) or dot (.) as a generic character.
Use '*' as a wildcard for any sequence of characters.
Use '!' to specify that the next character must be found at beginning of a word. It is very helpful to find sequences of numbers: you can for example use wildcards to search for all entries containing the numbers 50 and 60 using this search string: !50*!60. You can also use it for names, for example searching for '!eric' will find 'Eric' but not 'Frederic'.
Boolean searches are possible: you can enter several words (aka 'Terms') in the Find field and have FindHack look for Any term (a record containing any of the words will match the search) or All terms (a record containing all of the words in any order will match the search).
Lets you find the next occurence of a text in the current text field. Very handy when you are editing a long memo and want to retrieve information in it.
Lets you manage application sets. An application sets defines which applications are to be searched. This way, you can speed up Find operations when you know that the information you are looking for is located only in a specific set of applications.
You can make the search case-insensitive and accent-insensitive.
The results list only shows those apps containing matches for the search string.
FindHack remembers the results that were found during the last search and can show you the scrollable list of last search results.
Use space/backspace or the Tungsten's 5-way pad to quickly navigate from one application to another in the results list.
