In addition to English, the font is designed to be compatible with Catal|in, Czech, Danish, Dutch, Estonian, Finnish, French, German, Hungarian, Icelandic, Latvian, Lithuanian, Norwegian, Old English, Polish, Portuguese, Spanish, Swedish, and Turkish, including special glyphs and diacritics used by these languages. Please contact me if you find that the font is missing any glyphs used by these languages.</div><div></div><div></div><div>The font includes Old Style alternates for numbers (see below), small caps, superscript & subscript numeral glyphs, some alternate glyphs (EMUW agqt 01234789) as Stylistic Set 02 (see below), Unicode Roman upper case and lower case numerals, discretionary ligatures for half, quarters, thirds, & eighths, and an assortment of Unicode non-alphanumeric glyphs that interested me. Please refer to the PDF document in this release folder for the complete inventory of glyphs and their Unicode code points: Dana Library Hand Glyph Inventory - version 1.3.pdf</div><div></div><div></div><div>When two of the same lower-case letter are next to each other, Stylistic Set 4 changes the second letter to a slightly different version of the same letter. The difference may be imperceptible, but the differences are there. This has been added so that doublets look more like real handwriting than a font.

Weasel reader can navigate the folders on both the dana and the memory card and find them anywhere. I caution users to open weasel first without any ebooks and go to Options>Preferences> and uncheck the setting for sync/copying the books to the device. This makes weasel attempt to copy all books it finds to the Dana automatically when it starts up, and it will look like your Dana is off because it has no "please wait" message, while its working. It will keep going until your Dana runs out of memory. Which is not good if you got a lot of books. You need the books to be copied to the dana only if you want to annotate (add notes/bookmarks) and since all my books are in zTXT format, the notes/bookmarks save right into the book files themselves so you can copy them back to memory card and read them with the notes/bookmarks saved. Both FileZ and UniCMD (My recommendation) can copy files back and forth, way better than letting weasel do it automatically. You also want to make sure when using weasel that you install PalmResizedLibrary.prc because this allows weasel to take advantage of Dana's 560x160px widescreen rather than running at 160x160px. You probably also need Zlib.prc or SysZlib.prc as I have it labelled in some cases, its a library for working with compressed files. Not certain that weasel needs this for using zTXT, but I would think so. You can create PDB/zTXT files using Calibre ( calibre-ebook.com/ ) it supports input in all sorts of formats, TXT, PDF, Epub, Mobi, etc, and can output to PDB (Palm Database) in three modes (Ereader, DOC, and zTXT) I like zTXT because its smaller files, and weasel can only add notes/annotations to zTXT, while the palm reader built-in on your dana can do notes/bookmarks on standard Ereader files, it does this externally in a ebook database. I like it better using zTXT where the notes/bookmarks go into the ebook itself, so I don't have to keep seperate files around. Only complaint about Weasel I have is that the Palm Reader I can skip to next page with the spacebar, the keys on Weasel aren't as good, but I'm working on making a program that lets me remap keys for specific apps. I'm just not making much progress yet.. heh.. still learning the Palm OS</div><div></div><div>83 months ago(permalink)</div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div>For the images I included, you need to use UniCMD or PiNGer which is included with ZboxZ, though I've not tested PiNGer, UniCMD can open jpeg files fine, you just click on icon to the left of the name, or double click on the name. It'll take maybe 15seconds or so to load the files. They are all 560x160px 4 shade grayscale images that you can use like wallpaper on your Dana, when you just need to see some scenery or want to use it as a proof of concept that your dana can do more than just word processing. They are mostly panoramic scenery but I also made a few pictures of the Band Counting Crows, the singer Jewel, and the actress Eliza Dushku. You can't just convert any ol image because I've found that in displaying images like that, it produces its other two gray colors by toggling pixels on and off, and depending on how much of those colors and what shade they are, it may render a barely visible streaky image. These images are all ones I had good luck with, that seemed to display reasonably well on my Dana.</div><div></div><div>83 months ago(permalink)</div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div>There is an app in the zip that a dana user created called alphafiles.prc that facilitates copying of files to/from alphaword and the sd card, alphaword also supports saving to sd card by selecting "save as" in the menu and then using the pull down to select your SD card instead of the dana. There is no way I know of to make it automatically save there, but the pulldown is there for you to make use of the save location. Once its saved to the card it will then continue to save to the card. On the card it saves to /Palm/Programs/Alphaword/ there is also in /Apps/Office/ in the zip a copy of wordsmith which is what Alphaword was derived from, alphaword is a slimmed down version of wordsmith altered for ease of use and specific features of the Dana, you may want to try wordsmith and compare features to see which you like better. There is a minor issue where installation of wordsmith tends to "take over" alphaword because they are the same app, so your memo key will launch wordsmith and such, this is not a total takeover, you can still manually launch alphaword and you can also use rsrcedit to modify wordsmith.prc to change its version number and such to make the Dana not "prefer" wordsmith over alphaword when they are both installed. Simply deleting wordsmith from the dana will set everything back to normal.</div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div>As for frobnitz its pretty straightforward you near as I can tell it needs the files either installed directly to the dana or possibly in /Palm/Launcher/ on the SD card, it MAY support a /Palm/Programs/Frobnitz or some directory but I have not tested it extensively. Worth mentioning is that putting large numbers of files into /Palm/Launcher will slow down your launcher significantly at or around 100 or so files, this will cause your launcher (apps screen) to load slowly with a "please wait" and also slow down launcher functions like delete, copy, etc, which are in the menu on the launcher screen. This is not good in my opinion, which is why you want apps to use their own folders for data, like how I had the gameboy games in /Palm/Phoinix/ and how Alphaword puts its docs in /Palm/Programs/Alphaword, this is best practice but not all apps support it, and sometimes ones that do don't document it, which makes it difficult to figure out where it looks for its files. Weasel is an example of an ideal app which can find its files anywhere on the VFS, this is why I put my Ebooks in an /Ebooks/ folder and made sub folders because weasel can find them easily and by keeping each sub folder below 100 or so files, it loads these dirs quickly. As for installing files, if you do as I suggested and buy a 512MB or so card (512mb and 1gb are cheaper than smaller sizes these days), you can put all the data in the zip onto a SD card as-is using your computer and a card reader. Then you can "install" from the SD card using UniCMD. For frobnitz I'm currently keeping all the zcode files on my SD card and copying them to the dana as I need them to play, then deleting them. I'd like to figure out if it supports its own data dir so I can just keep all 500 or so in there and not have to copy them, but as of right now I don't know if it supports this. I'm pretty sure its open source so maybe I can figure it out from the source code.</div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div>UniCMD is a powerful tool, as you start using your Dana more like a computer you want to learn to use UniCMD and its features. All computers need a good filemanager and UniCMD is a wonderful filemanager. Its a two-paned file manager which functions like "install", "move", "copy" etc, go from the active pane to the inactive pane, the active pane is the larger of the two. You can select the device in the pane using the icon in the top left, to select the internal storage or one of the two cards. The icons on the bottom are less easy to figure out. the most important ones are the second from the left which is a menu that has text decriptions of functions including Edit, send, zip, unzip, cipher, decipher, erase, rename, move, install, copy, then there is the bar above the W and M looking icons which is a horizontal scroll bar that is more responsive than the vertical one in the panes, and another key useful icon is the checkboxes on the right which allow you to select all, select none, and select wildcard, etc. It can also invert a selection. UniCMD is much more than a simple filemanager like FileZ, it also supports use of various computer formats in their native format without conversion including TXT, ZIP, JPEG allowing you to view text files and JPEG images in the file manager and manipulate zip files on the device. It can also encrypt and decrypt files using a password. I highly recommend keeping a copy of this in the /Palm/Launcher/ of your SD card in case your Dana should get wiped out due to a crash or loss of power, then you can reinstall apps using UniCMD from the SD card without needing to sync with the computer.</div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div>With that in mind, you want to carefully consider which apps you need and where you need them based on your usage. You want to try keep your Dana's memory as free as possible and only put apps on there you need to make it function. I keep a copy of UniCMD on there so I don't have to have it on ALL my memory cards but I also keep at least one copy in /Palm/Launcher/ on a memory card with my backup apps incase I need to reinstall them, if you use BackupVFS you'd want to do the same with that app. I also keep a copy of hi-launcher on the dana because I use it in place of the default launcher, I prefer the ability to custom design a menu rather than using the dana's launcher which only allows a certain amount of categories and will not allow me to remove things like Wifi which I don't use which I can do in hi-launcher. Best of all hi-launcher doesn't scan /Palm/Launcher/ and thus won't slow down due to many files because it only scans its database of apps I put in my custom menu, and futhermore its menu pops up OVER my apps and allows me to switch between apps more quickly and can even keep a list of my recently used apps. I also keep weasel on my dana and all the libraries I have, Zlib, PalmResizeLibrary, Mathlib, etc. just in case something needs them. All my games and accessories I tend to keep and use off the memory card. This is another thing Hi-Launcher can do the Dana's launcher cant, it can put SD card AND Dana installed apps in the same menu, the Dana launcher organizes apps by where they're installed, and doesn't support sub menus.</div><div></div><div>83 months ago(permalink)</div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div> df19127ead</div>
