Put calls to MenuEraseStatus in your command handler before you do anything
that alters the screen in the area where the status could appear. The user
will lose the lingering popup confirmation of the command, but you won't
have refresh issues. There is some discussion in the description of this
function in the PalmOS SDK, and also some notes in the O'Reilly Palm
development book that shed more light on this.
