  Description     : GUI to download Web sites and documents to PalmOS devices

[ will be reformatted and enhanced before release ]
 Plucker is designed to download information from the Web and
 store them on your PalmOS device for reading.
 .
 To read the pages on your PalmOS device, you'll need a separate reader;
 see the Plucker package for that.
 .
 Plucker Desktop is a visual content management GUI for Plucker, the popular
 suite of tools that provides an offline webbrowser for handheld devices.
 Plucker Desktop allows you to configure and use Plucker within
 a visual desktop interface. You can use your mouse to quickly add and
 configure channels and send them to the handheld.
 .
 Plucker Desktop provides:
 visual configuration of all the latest parameters for Plucker;
 interactive wizards to setup Plucker, install software and add new
channels;
 autoupdate capability to update individual channels at specified intervals;
 drag-and-drop and clipboard support;
 a point-and-click showcase of preconfigured Plucker channels which can be
 instantly added;
 installing channel output to selected handhelds or directories;
 easy visual editing of exclusion lists;
 an integrated editor/previewer for all Plucker tags;
 visual progress feedback of channel updating;
 use of the graphical interface in multiple translated languages;
 extensive context-sensitive help throughout.
