Of course, with my Cygwin install and plucker, I have a cron job that runs every night to pluck my daily read. In the morning, I just run a batch file that copies all the files to my SM card that I put in the reader. I'm down to 1 click to copy, and 2 clicks to eject. And I even have it e-mail me when it messes up too!
As I understand it, all concentration is to get the new release out. After that, there are plans for a conduit and a few goodies for the Plucker Desktop. The conduit will install directly to the palm. Directly to a card would require a special library and sync tool that is probably beyond the scope of plucker. What could be added is the ability to select apps to run with the name of the plucker pdb file like you can select a directory or Hotsync ID. Cause then you could incorporate a second program like Pinstall from Envicon.com. Then you just need to get them to make a command line option to install to the card like you can do from it's interface. --Wes Heath Hansell said: > It's one thing having to run plucker separately from Hotsync, that I > don't mind as I understand the benefits. > > What I would like is to minimise all the steps after running a plucker > sync e.g. > > 1.
