Almost.

-1 will _include_ the 1 bit image, which is otherwise excluded if the -2
flag is set.  ...at least, that's what the MPW PilotRez tool does, and the
MW tool is built from the same sources.  You don't need to include -1
unless you also include -2.

When you say "the docs" what are you talking about?  The only docs I know
about are in the article at
http://palm.3com.com/devzone/docs/seeinggray.html, which matches your
description except for the -1 flag.  Are these described elsewhere?
