Having recently picked up a Compaq Aero 8000 just to experience an SH4 device, I've searched for every program I can find that has an SH4 version. Not a huge number, though there are some nice ones, like the SH4-only Adobe Acrobat Reader 4.0 for Windows CE
(the only Adobe Reader ever released for H/PC Pro
). Having searched through the forums, though, I learned that there are some SH3 programs that will work with an SH4 device. Again, not many, but some. So I thought it would be a good idea for those of us with SH4 devices to put together a list of SH3 programs that are confirmed to work on our SH4 devices.
One point, though: PocketC and .vb apps don't count, since they are not processor-specific but rather rely on processor-specific runtime libraries.
(A handful of .vb apps written originally for Pocket PCs do work, however, using the SH4 VB runtime files.
)
A few programs were written as unibuilds, like the SystemPath Control Panel applet.
(Even though the CPU identifier in systempath.cpl is A2 01, which stands for SH3 - as opposed to A6 01, which is SH4 - it will also work in SH4 devices.
) So far, however, nearly all the SH3 programs I've found to work were written for CE 1.0:
Surerange Pocket Timer
Queen Image's QI Timer
Applian Blox
MGNotes
ArCEnoid
Xoanan Chat
Mark Gamber's YachtCE 1.1
Anyone here have any others
(particularly newer ones
) to add?
