Welcome to Slap! Below you will find a quick start guide on how to install and use Slap. For a more detailed description of Slap, read the SlapManual.pdf file.
Before Installing, please read the enclosed license agreement. By using this software, you are agreeing to the terms of the license.
To install Slap, double-click on the Slap.prc file, and then HotSync.
You will now find Slap in your list of applications, and you are ready to go!
Slap is designed to be used from the Memo button. When you first start Slap, it will ask you if you want to start Slap with the Memo button.

How To Register
To purchase the registered version online of Slap, go to www.handango.com/purchase and enter 42892.
Slap requires Palm OS 3.0 or above. Slap will not run on the PalmPilot Professional or Personal.
Included is a User Manual in Adobe Acrobat Reader 3.0 format, suitable for printing or online viewing. Adobe Acrobat Reader is a free program available on the Internet. If you do not have Adobe Acrobat Reader 3.0 installed, you can download it at:
http://www.adobe.com/prodindex/acrobat/readstep.html
If you are viewing the manual, you may want to do the following to help you navigate and view the files easier. Choose Preferences->General from the File menu and make sure that the checkbox titled "Smooth Text and Monochrome Bitmaps" is NOT checked. This will make the text more readable on the screen.
If you open the manual with an older version of Acrobat Reader, you will get an error message.
If you ever want to let someone try your software, you can beam it to another Palm device, if both have infrared capability. You will be beaming the trial version of the software. Tap the Applications button and choose Beam from the menu.
