PowerHack Users Guide |
PowerHack is a HackMaster
Extension for the Palm Computing® Platform, which automatically locks
the device whenever it is turned off. When either the power button is pressed,
or the Auto-off timeout expires, PowerHack locks and turns off the device.
When the Pilot is next turned on, a password must be entered to unlock
the device.
Pre-requisites and Installation Tips PowerHack is a HackMaster extension. To use it, you will need to install the HackMaster application, which is shareware, and available from DaggerWare . Once both HackMaster and PowerHack are installed on your Pilot, you
will need to activate PowerHack by checking the 'PowerHack' checkbox listed
in the HackMaster application.
Note: To set a system password, simply go to the built-in Security application, and select the 'Password' option. |

PowerHack Future Enhancements and Known Bugs |
PowerHack (and
to the same extent, Check-In) has been superseded by it's sister product,
Commander Lite, which provides functionality to lock the Pilot under a
number of configurable options, including StartUp and Shortcut commands.
However, given the number of users still loyal to PowerHack, we are continuing
to support it, although future development effort will instead be concentrated
towards our other products.
The following enhancements, or fixes, are currently under consideration for immediate development, or are already being worked on. PowerHack Locking Limitations If PowerHack is being used without Check-In, it does not lock
the device if either the built-in 'Prefs' or 'Security' app is running
when the Pilot is powered off.
