It works silently in the background - keeping track of how often, for how long and at what times applications are used. The resultant data can then be viewed on the device in simple to read pie charts, exported to the Memo Pad, or synchronized to a PC with the AppStats conduit
pdbc (PDB Compiler) pdbc (PDB Compiler) - a compiler than converts a source file into a Palm DataBase file (PDB file).
The language the pdbc compiler understands is designed to be easy to understand und write.
Yet it is powerful enough to give the freedom to describe the binary content of the database records in a variety of ways

It runs on ANY Palm OS device running Palm OS version 3.0 and higher (not only on Palm VII)
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
FtrList FtrList - I once needed a small tool to check which features were installed and what their values were and came up with this small program.
The program consists of a list in which all installed features are shown.

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
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
LegacyRun Run non-multitasking (legacy) applications in Multitasker
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
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 is a fingerprint-reading simulator for your Palm, similar to Thumb Scan or Fingerscan
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).

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
