Lingo multilingual translator v2.6
Lingo is a freeware multilingual dictionary to translate single words
between several languages.
Those languages which use a non-latin character set are provided with
their own font for Lingo.
The program is dedicated to my friend Margaret.
Files:
Download the Program plus those language files you need.
Each language file allows translations to and from that language.
The original language files are based on the freeware program
ERGANE.
Installation:
Copy the application Lingo.prc and the desired language databases
LingoXX.prc to internal memory of the handheld.
Tools:
This package lgtools.zip contains two java scripts
to extract a lingo language file to a text file, that can be edited,
and to construct a lingo language file from a (new or edited) text file.
At the moment, language files with a non-latin character set
are not supported by the construction tool.
Phone Words
The idea for this program came when i received phone text messages
(SMS) written with T9 and some words were replaced with wrong words
using the same number keys, so that i had problems to understand the
sense of the sentence. This program makes a list of all 'equivalents'
of one word.
The program can also be used for another purpose: lets suppose your
phone number is 723353, and you wonder which words could be formed
with the letters on the corresponding keys; with the PhoneWords
program, you type the digits and see all matching words.

Program and English language file: Download
Additional languages:
Phone Words uses the same language databases as the translation
program Lingo (see the list above on this page).
Installation:
Copy the application Phonwrds.prc and the desired language databases
LingoXX.prc to internal memory of the handheld.
If language databases are already installed on the handheld because of
Lingo, they can be used immediately with Phone Words and it is not
necessary to reinstall them.
Country Flags v1.4
This application displays the pictures of the national country flags.
It is possible to filter resultats by region (continent), or to look
up all flags having a given pattern (horizontal or vertical
stripes) or containing given colours.
Writing a letter will cycle through the countries starting
with that letter.

IBAN Bank Account Number Check
This application calculates the checksum digits for IBAN Numbers,
thus it allows to check if a number is correct, or to generate the
checksum digits if the rest of the account number is known.
29 countries are currently supported by the program.

Hide Applications
My handheld has a number of ROM-based applications that i never
use (for example Welcome), and that i thus wish to make disappear
from the Application Launcher.
The application files cannot be deleted, but what is possible is
to place a dummy program with same name, same creator ID, and with
the system attribute 'hidden' to the handheld. This dummy program
then masks the original program and becomes invisible.
After a soft-reset, the hidden programs would reappear again,
therefore i added another small program HideApps, which will run
each time after a reset and rehides the undesired applications.
At any moment, the dummy applications can be deleted (from the menu
of the Application Launcher), then the original applications
reappear.
