Doah! (slapping self on forehead. Repeatedly.) OK, color me dense.
Methinks I've been staring at it all too much lately.. Thanks for the idea.
I can do this as a workaround, but am still curious about how the PalmOS
is going to react to a window being FrmInitForm'd and then FrmDelete'd
without that form ever having a chance to handle events? Is that going to
cheese the event queue in some esoteric fashion?
