I’ve not tried this but it looks interesting!
I am a big Palm OS fan.
Is there any advantage using this instead of an emulator?
Apparently it is an emulator, with the exception that it can’t write palm os-created documents? Due to “endianness” incompatibility at the moment.
Sounds cool tho.
IIRC, it differs from an emulator in that it doesn’t emulate the hardware of a PalmPilot and run the PalmOS firmware and any apps in this emulation, but instead implements the PalmOS APIs in native code and runs only the app code in an emulator. In other words, it’s to an emulator what WINE is to VMWare.
I’ve just built it from source to check it out.
Looks great, all the included apps work fine. I seem to only be able to open one app at the time and can’t find any way to close it or change to a different one, but that may be a problem on my setup.
I still haven’t tried any 3rd party apps.
The dev plot mentions it’s more of a app, and trying to pair it with a minimal Linux kernel, I wonder if that would work on a esp32
