I've noticed a few times in my hunt for SCL programs that I've ran into some Psion versions of some of the software as well.
Obviously, I know absolutely nothing about Psion, and don't know if it's feasible/too confusing to add those to the SCL, maybe we could make a sticky thread and I can update it with what I find ?

Anyway, I found

First off, torch, I would like to thank you for your indefatigable efforts to track down all this illusive software, and tracking down in seemingly every area.

I suppose I could put together a sticky of the few remaining Psion file sites. Given the low traffic of our Psion subforum, I can't imagine that c:amie wants to give up bandwidth to Psion file storage,

If there were true demand, we could reconsider. You're the first user to explore this and you don't even own a Psion

Thank you so much, that's very kind of you to say!

And sounds good! For now, I'll just paste description / archive link when I find stuff and then eventually it can be used for something useful perhaps

Edit:

I found this website (that I'm working on finishing adding to the SCL) that has some IrDA transfer programs between Psion and Windows CE!

If there were demand, creating a Psion SCL wouldn't be the hardest thing as the current SCL can be used as a framework. It's a lot of engineering and time though.

Of course. I completely understand. Since this is Jake’s and also your areas, I’ll defer but I think submitting to Jake for an eventual thread to collect information would be a good idea. I’m not trying to rain on anyone’s parade or overstep.
