I implemented the fNav resources and support in my application using
Codewarrior V5 and hand-coded resources. All I can say is "good luck" -- it
is a very complex undertaking to define it all, but much more work to
implement, as you have to have the code for moving the focus around in
response to the 5-way keys. If you have scrolling areas on your forms, it
gets a lot more complicated because you have to have different "modes" for
navigation so you can use the up/down keypresses to either move the focus or
scroll the information a page at a time depending on which mode is selected
(play with some of the built-in apps to see how this works).
There is a document describing the "standard" way this is supposed to work,
but I don't recall where it is online since it's been a while since I did
all this.

Subject: Advice about 5-way Navigation

I have a fairly large application, with over 50 forms. Currently it has on
support for 5-way navigation, and I would appreciate some advice on how to
implement it.
I am using a very old version of CodeWarrior. Would this be a good timee
to switch to PODS? Or can I generate resources with PiiRC, and include
them in my CW build?
Are there any good references for fNav resources, or any guidelines for
creating them?
