You can't do it during Evolution Palm Sync, but... In a terminal window $ pilot-xfer -i /path/app.prc substituting the path and file name of the app to be installed for /path/app.prc pilot-xfer will prompt you to press the sync button, and installation will proceed ... separate from a sync. This capability is provided by the Pilot-Link package. The evolution install replaces pilot-link with pilot-link.ximian, a version tuned to work with Evolution. In theory,it should still work, but as a disclaimer, I synced once to transfer my contacts, then deleted pilot-link.ximian and gnome_pilot and reinstalled the original pilot-link package. I can no longer sync with Evolution, but my ability to sync with jpilot is restored along with all of the pilot-link features which I use extensively. I wasn't ready to give up jpilot's light footprint, its ability to sync memos and perform full backups. And I suggest you read the man page for pilot-link and its components. If you don't mind the console interface, it provides a lot of very important palm utilities. -- Arthur S. Alexion <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Arthur S.
