Thanks for the information.  I've used cmdide before, but was hoping that
maybe there was something I didn't know regarding using a commandline
compiler/linker.  ah well... :)

Yeah, that's what I ended up doing to create most of the targets.

That's what I've figured, as CW seems to be the primary development
environment for the Mac; but I thought such a large project in conjunction
with Palm might be very well untested.

I think what'll I'll end up doing then is to use multiple sub-projects.
One question I have about this, which isn't really clear from the docs; is
which targets are built when using sub-projects?  Does it just build every
target in the sub-project, or does it build say, the identical target name
to the currently selected target in the main project?

ps - Ben - I enjoy your site and associated tips.  Have you thought of
making a mailing list out of them?

pps - I read your PPT presentation and I think including something like
POL in CW 9 is a step in the right direction!
