There should be a way to get compile/link time errors if you use an API that's not supported in the OS you're compiling for. The header files currently lack the conditionals needed to support this. Of course, you can use an older SDK to avoid using traps that are too new. Realistically, it doesn'

Overall, if you name with a "Palm" in it, I personally believe you are compormising your own product. Doing this is a throwback to early Macintosh software (e.g. MacWrite, MacPaint, MacDraw, MacSchedule, MacPlaymate -- let's not get started on this one!) where it noted that the software was i

Well, actually I don't see a problem with using global variables for saving/restoring the data regs, but you're right, using the stack would be an alternative. However, pushing them on the stack just with a movem.l in the startup routine is impossible - my StartApplication() first pushes the retu
