I really wish people would explain in what way they find these things to be
a struggle. It would then become possible to make it less of a struggle.
I am aware of two difficulties at present:
* On Windows, if you run the prc-tools installer several times, some
mount points which the tool chain uses to find itself can get mixed up.
(I don't really understand why people feels the need to install the thing
multiple times, but it seems they do.) I am in the process of making
the mounting portion of the installer more robust to deal with this.
In the meantime, if you unmount the relevent mount points before
rerunning the installer you should be fine:
# (you can ignore any errors produced by these four commands)
umount /prc-tools
umount /PalmDev
umount /bin
umount /tmp
* People forget to create a `sdk' symlink to point at their chosen default
Palm OS SDK. This is described in the second paragraph of the README, but
clearly that's not clear enough, so I will make it even clearer. This
header file selection stuff works fine automatically, but since everyone
seems to care about it so much, I am adding a section to the documentation
describing it.
Did you have a problem other than these two?
John
