You also have two other options. 1. Use a utility such as NutShell (like Installi-Shield for PC) that will create a self contained installer that you can package many files including datebook entries (registration reminders :) and address book records (for who to bug when there is a bug :). I have demo-ed NutShell and I like the Fact that you can create the installer right on a Palm.
2. PalmSource Installer. A little more complex then something like NutShell, but it works for multi-configurations (like games and so on). It also provides compression (looks like it compressed my 500k wap browser, 25k script library, 50k JPEG lib and about 50K of misc. channel files into what appears to be a 250k file :). Check it out, along with a demo at: http://www.palmsource.com/installer/. I am working with an older version of PSI and I seem to like it. I am going to try version 1.5 soon as that seems to add a lot. I have already seen it in action on PalmGear and I am impressed. I also like the fact that you can set a link on a web site to point to the psi package and download and install it right on the device.

I have seen various past posts regarding the pnoJpeg library. So I have a couple question regarding this library. First off, using it: Would I be correct to say to use it I include the header files in my code, then use the functions in my code and have the library installed on the palm to have it work accordingly. Then the second question would be, if the above is correct, is: Is there I way I can package it with my already existing code so the users don't have to install it themselves.
