Stumbling across the web, I found a diabetic care Newton package which
up to now hasn't been mentioned on NTLK: Pocket DiabetiCare 1.10 Beta 6
(1997).
I'd be happy if people interested could take a peek at it here
http://www.stillnewt.org/library/_Software/
_Other%20Newton%20Applications/_Health%20and%20Medical%20Software/
_Diabetic%20Care and then post a review or comparison with DietLog or
HealthMate on the Wiki and here.
I'm always fascinated by the cool stuff that was written in the 90s.
Too bad so much of this stuff isn't secured anywhere reliable and will
slowly passes away unnoticed...

If interested in DietLog and Healthmate, you may want to talk to
Laurent. But you still should think about the decompiler, though... ;=}
