GreenLightHack is a HackMaster hack that reverses the polarity of the screen when the backlight is turned on (all white pixels become black and all black pixels become white).
This has the effect of making the backlight on the old Palm models (Palm III and below) look like the new ones, and the backlight on the new ones (Palm IIIx and above) look like the old ones. This hack is free. It saves you green.
There are three varieties of this hack. One which always does the inversion; one which usually does the inversion (unless the graffiti punctuation mark indicator is on); and one which sometimes does the inversion (only if the graffiti punctuation mark indicator is on).
GreenLight Hack is pretty much useless on any newer PalmOS devices. It certainly won't work on any OS 5 products.
What's New in This Release:
· Added support for another backlight function that was sometimes used; removed "sometimes" and "usually" versions; now detects the hack being uninstalled when the backlight is turned on.
