I'm modifying Strip to save my password when switching apps but if
Strip is not called within a certain time out, it will request the
password again.  Yes I realize that this feature may be a security
weakness, but its for my own use and I want that convenience.

Anyways, since I don't live in the US, I downloaded the export version
of Strip and to my surprise, I found out that the basic encryption is
a Palm OS call to EncDes() ... which I could find no reference to at
all in the Palm Reference Guide.  So 

1) does the US version of Strip has stronger encryption that is not
part of the Palm OS?  

2) does the PalmOS EncDes() exist in all Palms world wide?  

3) if so, are they all identical?  

4) Just how weak is the Palm EncDes()?  I discovered that Strip only
allows a 30 char password (of which 10 chars you can't see)
