known problems:

  - setup:
    ./configure script doesn't seem to work on my linux box (maybe broken)?

  - bitmap problems
    hi-res 16bpp bitmaps/icons dont display correctly in simulator
    however look fine in prc-explorer [strange, suspect bug in PalmSim]

the manual.html file contains most info about how to use the new features,
i'd like to get some testing done with this so we can release an official
pilrc 3.0 [and, make it the main download]

a lot of changes have been made, and, we'd like to test for compatibility.
cheerio
