This is a goal that we'd all like to achieve but if my experience with
SrcEdit is any indication, it will be a challenge that will only be met when
OnBoardC is more compliant with C standards--and maybe when we've got a
debugger that will work with it.  I've never been able to get any idea why
the SrcEdit code chokes so badly when we try to compile it in OnBoardC. At
first I'll be pretty happy when we've got the source compiling in the two
main desktop compilers for Palm.

Getting back to the debugger: Roger's beta version of OnBoard Debugger
didn't come with the source code he gave me.  Before long I'll ask him about
this and see if he's willing to open that up as well.
