  the physical 'c' code does not exist in the compilers..

  if you look in the header files <UI/Window.h> you will
  see that all of the PalmOS calls are external. following
  their definition, they call a SYSTEM TRAP.

  of course they are available.. :)) but if you want to find
  the source code to how they work internally.. forget it.
  it is in the ROM. :))

  cheers.
