Utility 'Preferences' Enhanced for Palm
Our good MrAnderson has not missed this story that appeared a few days ago:
Thanks to TamsPalm I found out that Dmitry Grinberg of PalmPowerUps rewritten the application of preference of Palm, and released it under GPL v3, with source code included.
This unofficial update from Palm, supports various features such as support for icons, custom categories, and several more, which in theory improves the former Palm Preferences application. This update can be installed on all devices with PalmOS 5.x.
The new utility 'Preferences' with new features
In the original article from TamsPalm can find the link to download this program.
MrAnderson agree with the importance that Dimitry has released the source code, so that those who want to make some kind of development for PalmOS code examples have the best quality. In fact, this was a major cause should arise motion free software:
Free in Free Software is referring to freedom, not price. Having been used in this meaning since the 80s [...] In particular, four freedoms define Free Software:
- The freedom to run the program, for any purpose.
- The freedom to study how the program works, and adapt it to your needs.
- The freedom to redistribute copies so you can help your neighbor.
- The freedom to Improve the program, and release your improvements to the public, so that the whole community benefits.
Not everyone is an Equally good programmer in all fields. Some people do not know how to program at all. This freedom Full Version those who do not have the time or skills to solve a problem to indirectly access the freedom to modify. This can be done for a charge.

After that improves my knowledge in php and css I would like to learn how to make applications on PalmOS, so I find it very good source for learning reading others who know how to do things. Grande Dmitry.
I tried it on my TX and has not been installed, I had problems with synchronization, luckily I had made a backup so everything to normal, I imagine that over time some adventurous independent developers may be improving this application, not Dmitry why myself worthy, all a genius, Greetings
The application is still under development, will take time until it is usable. And yet, we'll see what equipment will be compatible. We will have to keep track
hopefully this soon, as the default application is horrible.
orale, very good, and install and looks great, though his Spanish is not very good but honestly gives a new view of the preferences menu ..
greetings
Finally managed to install, had made a mistake, but I see no difference, maybe I saw wrong, you tell me.
Look, what happens is it creates a new menu, not the old menu, just look PREF read capital letters ..
father is very ok ..
greetings
hello, I wanted to ask council, I am among the e3 and tx, the price difference is not great but the e2 memo comes with keyboard and bluetooth usb adapter ... (950 against 1300) for which you would choose you??
I use it is to surf the Internet wirelessly (by the blue, I have wi-fi) and eventually cver videos and something playful ....) worth the expense for the tx and I reached with the e3? muchisimas gracias
then I'd take the TX, although the E3 do not know, I know the E2 and T3, but anyway back to topic .. although you will not have wifi in your house, because there are already many places give you free service, such as cafes, airports and bus terminals tre, universities etc. .. E2 and T3 are good choices but are limited to Bluetooth connectivity issues, however the addition of TX BT provides the integrated wifi ..
greetings
The model is the E2, sorry ....
thanks for your response, but limited only to what the wi fi, (taking it out of a half) worth it??? in my town I have no hand in any wi fi .. new-maso internet this coming, ha ha, adfemas use is limited almost solely to my dentist office, not to instalr a desktop or a notebook that is cumbersome and the only thing I need is to see website, emails and some video, mp3 etc ... ..
Me too I'd take the TX, 6 months ago that I have and I can not complain, another advantage over that you say, I guess it will be the E2 or E3 to T3 because there is the area of graffiti, the tx is giving more virtual screen in front of the other area where this took place, unless the price differences greatly favor the TX if you doubt it, you decide
ok .. Well, as you just now discuss the two models are good, and if we remove the wifi, because .. Czech this comparative look ..

ami although personally I'd take the TX but if you do not need much the wifi connection, as an E2 to start is a good option
I think I'll opt for the e2, since they come with the keypad, memo and bluetooth adapter ... so I say no big difference between them ... except to tell me that is extremely slow or crashes a lot ... thanks for the comments
for that good luck .. and be sure to tell us how you go with your new device, and good as you will go shopping conprate SD 1giga us for a good fit to your music & video
saludos ..
