Hi Paul-

I moved to Android which is working reasonably well for me, but I too miss Palm, especially pToolSet plus DateBk. 
I'm mainly a GUI user, although I do use the Mac command line (Terminal) to manipulate my Android devices some, but I've never gotten into Unix the way I did with your lovely pScripting language.

Hi Guys:

It's good to hear from all of you...

I no longer use palms and fully moved to iPhones and iPads. However, I miss
the Palm functionality. Of course, these days, it is easy to be connected to
my desktop no matter where I am and nothing beats unix when it comes to
organizing one's life.

When Palm went out of business, I bought a bunch of brand new Palm Centros
(Sprint) thinking that I need to stock up but then I quickly moved to iPhone
when the 4S came out (and still have it). I also bought a bunch of high
capacity batteries. Now they all sit unused on my bookshelf.

So instead of developing pedit/pToolSet, I keep writing unix shell programs
that are fun fun fun.

I moved my JFile databases to unix too. I use unix tools to manage my data.

For my calendars and to do lists I use pcal combined with the standard unix
tools. E.g., I write "c bozid" in the terminal window and I get:

             03/24   Bozidar Benc died in 2004 in Croatia

(how sad).

The thing about unix is that I am pretty sure that it will survive me as
opposed to all those here today and gone tomorrow OSs.

BTW, when I say "Unix" I mean OS X. E.g., I write this email with mutt and
emacs in the terminal application of my Mac.

Best regards, Paul
