Features

GUI - One of the best features of the Explorer is its customizability. The user may choose between one- or two-panel modes, horizontal or vertical layout and setup other display aspects. Also the possibility of one-handed control and the support of all common devices and resolutions.

File Manager - is the heart of the Explorer. It is stable and efficient and it provides a comfortable way for file operations such as copying, moving, deleting, renaming, etc.
It offers many enhanced functions such as drag&drop, copy&paste, multi-selection, RAM/card conversions, powerful sorting, searching and filtering.

Launcher - Explorer can be used as classic launcher. While it stil cannot compete in the areas such as launching from the card, Explorer offers other advantages - document launching, virtual document folders etc.

Launcher Extras - Explorer allows the user to start the applications stored in RAM, on the card or even in the zip archives. Moreover, by tapping on a suitable file you can launch the associated application. An editor of file associations is available, too.

Control Panel - integrates more enhanced features such as editors of preferences, file associations or alarms as well as additional system information.

Backup - People often think of backup when it is too late...
Explorer backup offers similar functionality to the competing packages, but it does so very fast and needs less card space. And one more thing — the backup verification (since v2.42) makes it possible to reliably test the backup results. You can decide whether to trust the backup set without complicated testing.

Zipper - offers the cheapest way to save significant amounts of storage space. The used algorithm is PC compatible, so you can extract archives created on a desktop PC and vice-versa. Zipper is transparently integrated into the Explorer. You can perceive a zip archive as another folder and manipulate its contents, view compressed images, launch compressed applications etc. Zipper offers also password-based encryption.

FTP - Explorer offers several network-related functions. You can define one or more FTP connections that are accessible just like another card. You can browse the site, view, copy, delete - simply do (nearly) the same things as if the files resided on your PDA. Besides FTP, you can do the file downloads (http) and even check for newest Resco products.

LAN/VPN Networks - Explorer networking attaches your PDA to the computer and LAN you are connected to. Any public drive in this LAN can be mounted similarly to a Palm expansion card. You must login as a user of this computer and then can perform all operations this user is allowed to do. There are various ways how to realize the connection, easier (WiFi) or more difficult (BT, cable, VPN), but the final result will please you.

Built in image viewer - A simple fast viewer providing full-screen image preview. Displays jpg/bmp/gif images and images produced by Clie and Zire cameras.
Enables direct image preview from the zip archives. Alternatively the external viewers can be employed.

RAM Analyzer - You know it for sure: Cleaning old unneeded stuff that remained from the past and just occupies precious space, is close to impossible. It's here when the (optional) folder view of the RAM comes to help.
Explorer sorts hundreds of the RAM files into logical folders grouped by the application or purpose and identifies unknown pieces. It's much more than simple sorting by CreatorID's - simply a perfect tool for the RAM analysis.

Hex viewer - Enables preview of the selected file in different modes: image, hex, text, database. Database mode also allows delete of individual records. Text mode offers full editing capabilities.
