Archive of the forum Quartus Handheld Software: Discussion Forum: General: Archive of the forum By Dmitry Yakimov on Sunday, December 17, 2000 - 05:42 pm: Edit Is there anybody who has got the subj? I can't get it from Neal's site because his ftp is seemed to be broken. By Neal Bridges (Nbridges) on Sunday, December 17, 2000 - 06:31 pm: Edit Thanks -- the archives were stored on an external FTP, with which there are apparently technical difficulties. I've moved them for now to the File Area; the "Message Archives" link will take you there. Sorry for the inconvenience! Let me know if you have any trouble.

E-mail: Manual in Doc or TealDoc format Quartus Handheld Software: Discussion Forum: General: Manual in Doc or TealDoc format By Mark Norton on Tuesday, December 12, 2000 - 03:04 am: Edit Has anyone put the documentation for Quartus Forth in DOC, TealDoc, or TomeRaider format? I've been trying for days to get a chance to sit down and read the manual, however life seems to interfere. It'd be awfully handy to have the manual itself on the PDA as well as the library references and whatnot. By Richard Chamberlain (Rac) on Tuesday, December 12, 2000 - 07:30 am: Edit Mark, I have it in iSilo format if that is any good? Richard By Mark Norton on Thursday, December 14, 2000 - 04:23 pm: Edit Yes, I've found that iSilo has a free format and that would be very helpful. Add a Message This is a public posting area.

E-mail: Starting New Project Quartus Handheld Software: Discussion Forum: General: Starting New Project By Joe McFadden on Sunday, December 10, 2000 - 04:34 am: Edit OK here I go ... I was talked into taking on a PALM IIIC application and since I was familiar with FORTH, I've found my way here. I've loaded QUARTUS into the PALM and it runs from the console... First Question: Where do I find the ResEdit application ? The tutorial explains it's use but I can't get there ..... Thanks, [email protected] By Neal Bridges (Nbridges) on Sunday, December 10, 2000 - 06:59 am: Edit There's a pointer to RsrcEdit and a lot of other resources in the "Online Resources" section of the manual. Also, here's a link to the RsrcEdit site. Neal Add a Message This is a public posting area.

E-mail: PalmSource 2000 Quartus Handheld Software: Discussion Forum: General: PalmSource 2000 By Neal Bridges (Nbridges) on Saturday, December 9, 2000 - 10:06 pm: Edit I'll be at PalmSource again this year, December 11th to 15th in Santa Clara, California. I'm taking a laptop, so I'll be here as usual. Neal By Neal Bridges (Nbridges) on Tuesday, December 12, 2000 - 12:32 am: Edit Arrived safely! Neal By Doug Philips (Dgou) on Tuesday, December 12, 2000 - 02:52 pm: Edit Great! Have fun and have a swift and safe return trip! By Neal Bridges (Nbridges) on Tuesday, December 12, 2000 - 03:52 pm: Edit Thanks, Doug! Neal By Neal Bridges (Nbridges) on Wednesday, December 13, 2000 - 12:52 am: Edit Here's something amusing -- a promotional t-shirt from the show. Note "Forth" at the top of the list (crossed out, but that's marketing for you). Neal By Wade Carlson on Wednesday, December 13, 2000 - 10:38 pm: Edit Hey Neal, what do you think of AppForge's new Visual Basic for the Palm? I can't believe it will be any real threat to Quartus Forth. Anything with a runtime means Major Slow-Time and a waste of memory. By Neal Bridges (Nbridges) on Wednesday, December 13, 2000 - 11:15 pm: Edit That's AppForge's t-shirt, actually. I've just been talking to them. AppForge is a) expensive: $399 for a 'competitive upgrade', $695 otherwise (US dollars), and b) requires a run-time module that's already 357K in size, and bound to grow. Quartus Forth is aimed at a different audience; I don't believe AppForge will draw away any of our customers. An interesting point about their marketing strategy: they'll accept a Quartus Forth license for their $300 'competitive discount', so that means a customer could register Quartus Forth at $69.95, then buy AppForge, and save $230 overall. This should encourage people to buy Quartus Forth who then don't use it and never ask for support; it's a win for everybody. (Actually, in all seriousness, I'd rather that people actually use Quartus Forth; that's after all why I created it.) Neal By Neal Bridges (Nbridges) on Thursday, December 14, 2000 - 12:38 am: Edit Something else: AppForge apps don't support menus at all at this point.
