FlashLight v1.0

by John Pane

This hack activates a TaleDevice while the Palm V hardware contrast button is depressed. After the button is released, the contrast dialog box will come up as usual. Just press the contrast button again to dismiss that dialog box.

FlashLight is freeware.

Requirements

FlashLight requires HackMaster, which is shareware. I encourage you to register your copy of HackMaster if you use FlashLight.

Details of Operation

FlashLight is a HackMaster hack. After installing FlashLight, you control its operation by turning it on or off inside HackMaster. FlashLight has no configurable options.
