I use /Palm/Programs/Plucker, and drop the files there with a USB card reader. I *don't* like the habit of everything winding up be default in /Palm/Launcher. (And I have 3,210 Plucker files on my device, so I damn well want them in their own directory.) If you don't have a card reader, look at PInstall from Envicon.de. It's a freeware replacement for the Palm Install Tool and Quick Install programs. It doesn't use Hotsync (and it shuts down Hotsync Manager if it's running and restarts it when it's done.) And it doesn't care about Hotsync ID. It simply sends selected files out the selected port to the connected device. I can install to RAM or to a specified directory on a card. http://www.envicon.de/e/pinstall/pinstall.html > Upon further experimentation I have discovered that files I downloaded from > Gutenberg as text files (as opposed to rtf or doc files) convert properly > and work as they should. PG doesn't offer RTF or doc files, so I'm not sure how you are getting those.

Since you run Windows, take a look at Rafael Setzer's PDA Converter: http://www.jakewalk.de/wiki/pmwiki.php?n=MySoftware.PdaConverter PDA Converter is a GUI shell for the Plucker parser that does the conversion. IT provides a friendly way to specify the desired options, then calls the Plucker parser as a background task to convert the file(s). > Thanks! > Bob ______ Dennis _______________________________________________ Public archival of this list without permission is prohibited. http://lists.plkr.org/mailman/listinfo/plucker-list
