HackFinder - Hacks are little pieces of code that replace or extend functions of the PalmOS.
Usually hacks should be managed by a hackmanager like HackMaster or X-Master, but sometimes they patch the system by themselves, possibly risking conflicts with other hacks/ applications.
For background information on hacks, what they are, how they work and what could happen if you are not careful, be sure to read the article "Everything About Hacks" at www.dseifert.com/hacks.
To help determine whether an application installs a hack, I have written this little application called HackFinder.
It will scan all installed applications for code that installs a hack and will create a report listing these applications along with the PalmOS API call they replace/extend.
Be sure to read the manual to understand how it works and what its report mean.

DTFH - Date Time Format Hack DTFH - Date Time Format Hack - This hack influences the way some system functions format date and time strings.

ResetEmu ResetEmu - The PalmOS primarily notifies applications of important global events by sending so called launch codes.

Crash Pro Even PalmOS applications sometimes crash. Most annoyingly the on-screen reset button often does not work, requiring you to take your device out of its case and perform a manual soft reset. For some devices you may even find yourself in a frantic search for a paperclip to be able to actually do the reset.
Recover ...
But here Crash Pro comes to your aid
