I tried this when I first got the Palm and quickly realized that the Palm was very difficult for a non-programmer to write for without spending a bunch of money on development software. But they had a free C compiler and other tools which I made almost no progress on.<\/p>\n<p>Later I got a book on the Palm that had a trial version of some development software. This made things a lot easier, but the trial version didn&#8217;t let you write anything complex. Later still I downloaded another development package called CASLsoft. With one of those two programs I wrote a Vertical Curve program that I have had ever since (but I lost the source code). That&#8217;s a good program for me to write when I&#8217;m learning because it has a couple of variables and IF-THEN&#8217;s and needs input and output.<\/p>\n<p>Last week I decided to make VCurve 1.0 available on Palm Gear. I already had a developer account from when I wrote MemoParser 1.0, so it was easy to do. So far 47 people have downloaded it.<\/p>\n<p><A HREF=\"http:\/\/www.palmgear.com\/index.cfm?fuseaction=software.showsoftware&amp;PartnerREF=&amp;siteid=1&amp;prodID=99648\">Palm Gear VCurve Home<\/A><\/p>\n<p><A HREF=\"http:\/\/igirder.com\/vcurve.htm\">VCurve home on my web site<\/A><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A year or two ago I was trying to learn to write programs for the Palm.
