netmeister.org - palm stuff

Most of the stuff in this category is wildly outdated. I haven't so much as looked at a Palm since Fall 2000. The documents provided here are just left for reference in case somebody finds them useful.

Some Palm Development Documents I've written:

"Developing Software for the Palm OS" [text] [html] [pdf] [ps]
"Palm OS Emulator HOWTO" [text] [html] [pdf] [ps]
"Colors" - A Palm Programming Example [text] [html] [pdf] [ps]
Developing Web Clipping Applications for the Palm VII [text] [html]
"Using Linux to Develop Software for the Palm OS" - published in the November Issue of Embedded Linux Journal - [txt] [html]

dec2hex a simple little program for the Palm OS to convert decimal numbers to hexadecimal
palmdoc - a program inspired by javadoc to help Palm-Programmers document their projects.
WAP vs. i-MODE - a brief comparison of the two 3rd Generation Wireless standards [text] [html]

Many people have asked me via email if I could send them a palm ROM image - my response has always been the same: Read the relevant part in the Palm OS Emulator HOWTO or in Developing Software for the Palm OS. In detail: join the Palm Solution Provider Program as described under http://www.palmos.com/dev/tech/tools/emulator/. This way you have a large variety of ROMs to choose from. Palm provides excellent support for developers, if you want to develop software for them, please join their Solution Provider Program.
