Ok, I give up.

The doc's say to prefix your PICT resources with '-2' to get OS3 to treat it
as a 2bit per pixel bitmap, and '-c-2' to also compress the 2bit per pixel
PICT resource. Cool.

Except when you try to do it!

My PICT resource ID=1100, name = -c-2Banner shows up as a nice 4 color
bitmap in Constructor, but the resultant header is:

#define c2BannerBitmap                            1100

which must not be what Palm OS3+ is looking for, since it just shows up as a
plain old black and white!

And you can't even use -2Banner, the uncompressed version, since that
generates:

#define 2BannerBitmap                            1100

and the compiler complains about the mal-formed identifier name.


So, how does one use Constructer to get OS3+ to correctly do the multi bit
per pixel bitmaps?
