Re: [gutvol-d] About the XML debate

Plucker lets you download a web site (and conversely an html ebook) to your Palm. Links and images still work. Its GPLed. But its PalmOS only.

Incorrect. Plucker runs on PalmOS, PocketPC, Windows MObile, Linux and on non-PDA desktop machines. There are ports of the viewer for those platforms, many of which we carry in CVS.

AvantGo does the same for PocketPC. But it is payware.

AvantGo falls short of about 40 of Plucker's core features.

We need a reader for PocketPC (and Symbian) and an html converter that runs on (at least) linux. Both must be open source.

Plucker, Vade Mecum (the PocketPC viewer based on Plucker) are the tools you need. David A. Desrosiers desrod@gnu-designs.com http://gnu-designs.com
