Heh. Maybe...if I can find them. Moreover, I kind of suspect that they were
simply coded directly in the device, which would mean that they are gone.
I used the Palm and ADIOS board for monitoring some stuff. My recollection is
that there were only a few lines of Basic involved...opening a port, sending
and receiving ASCII.
The best thing to do would be simply to download Hotpaw, and have at it. I do
not recall it being a tedious or tricky thing. It struck me as very useful.
Oh, and I have NOT forgotten the brief exchanges with you and Mike re ADIOS,
just haven't had a chance to prowl around in my 'file system' (AKA basement)
and find the stuff.

A good while back, I developed several trivial applications for my Pal, using
Hotpaw Basic. In each case, those involved RS-232 connections.
It's pretty straight-up Basic, as I recall. It's been years, but looks like
it's available for download here:

Wow, that's pretty cool. I have an old Palm III that I keep wanting to find
stuff to do with. I have the cradle (an RS232 cradle, thankfully) but no
software. I put batteries into it and it does work.

stumbled across this interesting piece of Palm Pilot software.... it turns the
PP into an RS232 driven LCD display. This seems like it could be quite useful
for the M100 - debug interface, auxiliary input/output etc.
