RegCode RegCode is just the thing you need to boost sales of your Palm OS application! RegCode generates a registration code based on a user's HotSync ID which encourages each user to pay for their own copy of your app. The small investment you make in RegCode will quickly be recouped
ltraps ltraps is a trap analyzer for Palm OS prc files. ltraps will semi disassemble the code segments of the prc file and show which traps are used and what OS version is required for the trap to work ... (among other things).
ltraps is under development and should be treated as alpha software.
ltraps is currently being used on both Linux and Microsoft Windows

PluaED PluaED is a simple editor which can be used to edit Plua source files. Plua can read source files in DOC format or from Memo Pad. DOC writers usually costs money, Memo Pad can only edit source files up to 4096 characters.
PluaED overcomes some of these limitations - PluaED is free and can edit source files up to 65534 characters (if your device supports it)
Quartus Forth Quartus Forth - Since 1997, Quartus Forth is the original on-board ISO/ANSI Standard Forth compiler for Palm OS handheld computers. Quartus Forth is fast, and builds genuine native executables that need no 'run-time' libraries.
Forth is a perfect fit for the handheld screen, and Quartus Forth makes programming the Palm OS simple
TinyLogo TinyLogo is a programming language and program execution environment.
It is especially friendly to beginning programmers or people who just want to get a simple idea of what programming is all about.
It is based on the Logo programmining language and comes complete with Turtle Graphics
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
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
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
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
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
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
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
