You did remember to link with the `-g' flag didn't you? (As usual you
need to compile with `-g' to get symbol information, but on Palm OS you
also need to *link* with `-g' to get a debugger stub which gives you this
initial breakpoint.)

That's an interesting question... I don't use debuggers much myself so I
never thought to try that! The answer is yes, `m68k-palmos-gdb multiapp'
does hit that first breakpoint and I can step through and set breakpoints
in the main code resource. On a cursory examination, setting breakpoints
in other code resources doesn't seem to work, and quite likely other
symbolic information pointing at other code resources won't work either
(hmmmm, there's something to investigate...). But debugging stuff in the
default main code section works fine even in a multiple code resource
application like TLP.
