easy way.. is #2.. catch the event, then call FrmHelp() directly
with two different id's.. tampering with the form struct directly
is not nice :) and will most likely break in future versions
jens rupp (developer of bigclock) and i are also devleoping a
more sophisticated help system for the palm called "got help?"
which will give better help than the standard bold font help :)
more information on it can be found here:
http://www.ardiri.com/palm/gothelp/index.cfm
once we fix a few issues with multi sized screens we should
get it out :) [i also gotta sync with jens] :P
