It also includes language bindings for languages such as Perl, Python, and Java.

Recent releases


Changes: Code cleanups were made in libpisock, libpisync, src, and include. An installation problem with udev rules was fixed.


Changes: New features include full VFS support for external media cards, large segment support (>64k records), OSX support for running pilot-link, support for libusb (so no visor kernel module is required), conversion from getopt to popt (which improves option handling and matching), and many other features. Several new conduits have been added: read-screenshot (to extract Palm screenshots), pilot-wav (to convert voice memos to .wav files), read-veo (to extract images captured with the Veo Traveler Palm camera), and more.

Changes: The "double-free" bug that would sometimes cause the Visor driver to crash or hang on Linux systems has been fixed. Network Hotsync from Linux to Windows now works. An issue with libpng being linked into every binary by default has been fixed. The configuration has been updated to work with autoconf 2.5x, and there is a fix for Perl 5.8 on systems with gcc 3.x installed.
