Does anyone know of a simple (relatively) way to write programs for a
Palm m125? I have a budget of $50 or so that I would want to spend on
this project, plus I don't have a programming background, and thus I am
not familiar with binary or any of the other languages. Any help would
be appreciated.

It's difficult to answer without knowing what kind of programs you'd
like to write...

Some environments are free.

Only real developers consider that binary is a language ;-)

OK. Thanks, I was just wondering if there was a general tool you can
use, sort of like Visual Basic (I think) for PCs. Thanks again!

There are Pascal and C compilers for Palm, including one, OnboardC, which
runs on the Palm itself. A Google search for Palm programming tools
should get you started.

Hello jflash,

Have you looked at http://www.palmos.com and http://www.palmsource.com?
What you need is an IDE(Integrated Development Environment)! There are
free ones and ones you have to pay for.

You might want to get a book on Palm OS Programming.

Good Luck,

hotpaw has a basic interpreter that runs on a m505 OS 4.
not sure about compatibility with yours.
It's a limited demo, but not limited so much.

For my toying around with basic I am happy with the free smallbasic
http://smallbasic.sf.net

Thanks for all the help! I'll try some of them out. If it affects what
program I should use, I am wanting to make a To Do type program, except
that is used for lists (such as packing, shopping, etc.) Thanks again
for the help!

There are even Basic interpreters for PalmOS. Look for SmallBasic
(free) or HotPaw Basic (shareware).

If you want to do it just for the practice and experience, have fun. If
you want an app that works, try HandyShopper. It's free, and will work
for lots of things besides shopping lists, and there are many different
databases available on the Google group.

Hello,
you can try PDA toolbox.
it is very visual, no programming needed. and you can do simple database
programs with it.
This one is within your budget!, here is the link:
http://www.pdatoolbox.com/

also there is nsbasic. it might be out of your budget but worth taking a
look at:

http://www.nsbasic.com


hope this helps,
