About:
Plucker is an offline Web and eBook viewer for Palm OS-based handheld devices and PDAs. It comes with Unix/Linux tools and conduits, and Windows and Mac OS X conduits that let you decide exactly what part of the Web you want to view on your PDA (as long as it's in standard HTML or text format). The requested Web pages are processed, compressed, and transferred to the PDA for viewing by the Plucker viewer.

Release focus: Major feature enhancements

Changes:
i-mode support, changes to 5-way support in the library, faster rotation, faster aliasing of fonts on 68K, support for (slow) colored anti-aliased text in 8 BPP, support for font remapping via a font package, true italic font support, kerning for antialiased fonts, an improved search form and dictionary lookups, and a new Plucker Plugin Interface (PPI). Aliased fonts now work with colored backgrounds. There were also many new translations and dozens of other features.
