I assume you mean:
FrmAlert(myAlert);
SysReset();
If this only happens for system errors, and not user errors, I don't see how
this is better than:
ErrDisplay(myMessage);
The latter includes a filename and line number that can be useful in
pinpointing the error when the error message isn't unique. Keeping system
error messages short (and therefore not always unique) is a good idea if
you're trying to minimize code size. Also, the latter includes a Debug
button on debug ROMs. This can be used to attach to a low-level debugger
(like PalmDebugger).
