Description

IntelliBooger^TM plugins are separate palm programs that you can install to extend the capabilities of DiddleBug. Plugins will not show up in your Launcher application, but will be available from the plugin button in DiddleBug after you select "Transfer" from the menu. You can delete plugins using your file-manager or the built-in function in the PalmOS launcher. Each plugin knows how to write to the database of a given application and how to jump to that application. You can install as many or as few plugins as you want, so you do not have to waste your RAM on unwanted capabilities. Only the plugins that you install will show up in your plugin menu.

A list of the currently available plugins, and a description of their capabilities is given below. Plugins that are planned in the future are also available. You should also read the section in the manual about using the plugins.

Plugin Descriptions

A list of plugins and their capabilities is given here. All plugins are available in the zip-file from the Download area.

ToDo (v.1.4, size: 2.9K)

The ToDo plugin will write the text you have entered in the pick field into the database of the built-in ToDo application. If you have an alarm set in DiddleBug, it will use the alarm date as the due date for the new entry.

DateBook (v.1.3, size: 3.0K)

The DateBook plugin will write the text you have entered in the pick field as a new appointment in the built-in DateBook application. It will use any alarm or repeat information that you have set in DiddleBug for the new entry.

This is not a plugin for the "Calendar" application on newer palmOne devices (i.e. Tungsten T3). If you want a "Calender" plugin, please write to palmOne to release the necessary information for their new record format.

The Address plugin will create a new contact in the built-in Address application. It will write the text you have entered in the pick field into the first phone entry if it starts with a number or a plus sign '+' (international dialing prefix). If you write the entry as:

it will put the data in the appropriate fields. You may leave any of the three fields blank, but you must have the two semi-colons ';' (e.g., 'Smith; ; Palm Computing'). If you don't use the preceeding format, and the entry contains a space, it will be put in the company field. Otherwise, for single words, it will go in the last name field.

This is not a plugin for the "Contacts" application on newer palmOne devices (i.e. Tungsten T3). If you want a "Contacts" plugin, please write to palmOne to release the necessary information for their new record format.
