» Minibar v3.0 Description
Minibar is a bartending application for PalmOS.
It includes a database of over 450 mixed drink recipes and filters for searching by drink and ingredient type.
Update Description:
v3.0: Most changes leading in minibar 3.0 were mostly due to trying to achieve the two goals above (faster access and ease of extending the drinks data base). Besides some other things the use of color to distinguish drinks of different types or origin were introduced, the filter UI was changed, and the look and feel became quite different. Details are in the help text on every window. Here I only want to point out the following features:

Besides some other things the use of color to distinguish drinks of different types or origin were introduced, the filter UI was changed, and the look and feel became quite different. Details are in the help text on every window. Here I only want to point out the following features:
- Recipes can be imported from memo pages as long as they are written in a specific form (as explained in the help windows). You can also export recipes to memo pages and thus beam them to friends. Exported recipes are also examples of the correct syntax for recipes to import.
- You can add/rename/delete ingrediences, ingredient attributes (Dark, Dry, ...), and drink descriptors as well. Be careful when you do this, as modifying the name of any of these items changes all recipes that contain them. It can be useful after problems happen during recipe import, due to typos or wrong responses to prompts.
- Palm Tungsten and similar devices are supported allowing about three times as many drink names to be displayed on the screen as by minibar 2.2.

DON'T install AppSlipRotate.prc and StatusBarLib.prc (included in the zip) UNLESS you own a Palm Tungsten T3 ! These files are NOT needed for other Tungsten models ! If you install them on another Palm (T5, TX) it could lead to the loss of the bottom bar. The readme file is poorly written since it doesn't warn the user about this issue ! The author should change the readme file and put these files in a separate folder inside the zip, "for T3 users only" !!!

CAUTION PALM TX TUNGSTEN USERS... Even after following special instructions for this model, I still had to hard reset my Palm. Installing this program led to a loss of my whole bottom bar.
