Program is an OPL Editor for the Nokia 9210. It is the same program which is found on the Psion Series 5 and 7. It has up until now be the preserve of ER5. However when Symbian announced the release of the OPL Runtime plugin for the 9210, (more information on this here) the editor was made available to Professional members of SymbianDevnet (those who pay £100 a year). Unfortunately this means it is not available for the average user to download. Since it is still in alpha stage it not surprising.

If there is enough interest in OPL Symbian will continue development and the editor (and the SDK package for the PC) is likely to be made available.

OPL stands for Organiser Programming Language (the first Psion PDA's were called Organisers). It is BASIC like in construct and is very easy to learn. OPL programs make up the vast amjority of freeware and shareware for the ER5 platform.

For example the following code would print Hello World on the screen:

PROC hello:
LOCAL string$
string$="Hello World"
gPRINT string$
ENDP

Below are some screenshots from the great guys at My Communicator. If your looking for another Communicator site they are highly recomended. They have reguarly updated news and a comprehensive lists of information. They are a long standing site and have information on the 9110 too, ideally if your upgrading from the earlier Nokia Communicators. (N.B. While most people dont mind you 'borrowing' screenshots they often like to be asked first and the least you can do is link back to them - I'm happy for people to use screenshots - (just make sure you link back).

Program works just like a text editor, you write you source in the editor and then translate it (this turn it into code that can then be put through through the run time).

Run the program - this will run the coe that has been 'compiled'. OPL programs can be a simple as one rountine, or as complex as full applications. For example you could just print hello world on the screen or wrtie a full finanical management package like RMRBank of ABP!

You can write source code elsewhere as a text file and thhen import into the editor, as well as exporting text o continue development eslewhere. Most developers use the Emulator to write and test their programs before testing them on the real thing!
