Not necessarely. I added a flag to AXIS a while ago to not export HAL pins. It was added in order to run AXIS on a remote computer (not the one with RT and HAL). Haven't tried in a while, so if it doesn't work currently it's probably because some new pins have been added which aren't switched out by that flag. I doubt you can run touchy without HAL though, as it's specifically designed for that scenario. <snip> Regards, Alex ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The Palm PDK Hot Apps Program offers developers who use the Plug-In Development Kit to bring their C/C++ apps to Palm for a share of $1 Million in cash or HP Products.
