Hi all,

I've been trying (without success) to localize my app on the Handspring
Treo. I've done the following which as far as I can see should result in
a language change on the app but nothing is happening.

1 I create a project in CW8 with all resources are in English and the
'generate xpref' box in the resource editor is ticked. The output file
is 'english.prc'.

2 Using the prc2ovl tool I do: 'prc2ovl english.prc -locale enUK -o
EnglishOvl.prc' which creates 'EnglishOvl.prc' overlay for enUK.

3 Then I do: 'prc2ovl english.prc -locale frFR -o FrenchOvl.prc' which
creates 'FrenchOvl.prc' overlay for frFR.

4 Using the resource editor I edit this file (FrenchOvl.prc) to have the
french text changes in it.

5 Then I do: 'prc2ovl FrenchOvl.prc -c -p english.prc -o
FixedFrenchOvl.prc'. This gives me a FixedFrenchOvl.prc file

6 I then install both english.prc and FixedFrenchOvl.prc on my
Handspring Treo which is running in French. But when I run the app it
still comes up in English.

Is there anything I've forgotten to do or does the Treo not support the
overlay manager ? Its running PalmOS 3.5 so it should do. Having
searched the archives I can't see what I'm doing wrong.

Thanks for any help.

Steve
