NS Basic/Palm v7.0 Released
NS Basic Corporation has released version 7.0 of its NS Basic/Palm development toolkit. The new release features an improved user interface for applications, a pdf version of a popular book on NS Basic/Palm, new tutorials, samples, technotes and more. NS Basic is a Visual Basic like development kit that provides Palm OS developers an alternative to the usual C/C++ toolchain.
The product includes an IDE (Interactive Development Environment) with a graphic design screen, powerful code editor, compiler and installer generator. It is a complete development environment with a total download of about 14 megs. No additional SDKs are needed.
"This new release allows developers give their apps a clean, modern look and feel." said George Henne, President of NS BASIC. "Furthermore, since apps can run virtually unchanged using NS Basic/Symbian OS, developers now have an easy way to run their apps on Nokia smartphones as well."
Some of the major features include:
- Gradient buttons and bitmaps
- Themes defining colors of your app
- PDF version of "NS Basic Programming for Palm OS" by Verive
- New Dictionary Shared Library
- Improved compatibility with NS Basic/Symbian OS
- Over 30 other features and fixes
Applications developed with NS Basic/Palm are distributed royalty free. NS Basic/Palm 7.0 costs $149.95 USD for a single user. The toolkit runs on Windows 2000, XP and Vista. The product is available immediately from the company's website. Existing users can upgrade to the new release for a discounted price. Registered users of NS Basic/Palm can also purchase NS Basic/Symbian OS at a discount.

Nonetheless if you want to be challenged it would be worthwhile to investigate the tutorials before considering purchasing this toolkit for developing a program for Palm OS 5.
