The palm is a nearly ideal platform for IF. It is small, light weight, has more than enough memory for the interpreter and a couple of games and lasts 10h+ on a pair of AAA rechargables.
The only problem is, that I keep loosing my way without a map and juggling a notebook and the palm while waiting in line is hardly convenient. So some sort of mapping program was needed and the idea for IFmapperwas born.
IFmapperisn�t designed to be a tool with a lot of bells and whistles, the main advantage of palm program is a small memory footprint and efficiency. With 40k the former is certainly achieved, while still getting the job done. The interface is reasonably simple and within the bounds of the Palm�s limited display capacity allows you to draw and rearrange all items comfortably. Unfortunately map loading time is a little long on larger maps, so the flow of the game is somewhat lost while switching between game interpreter and IFmapper.
