Not to be flippant, but get DeveloperStudio from falch.net. There's a few burps about getting the settings right at first, but once they're right, it works like a champ. Nice smooth installation, and it just works as you've said above. Even better, when you do encounter a burp, they've got extension help online, and when that fails, a real live human is on the other end of an email. Problems sometimes aren't fixed immediately, but it's not for lack of trying. The editor has one or two quirks (I simply cannot get the editor to give up on tabs and only use spaces, and every once in a while, the editor crashes), but well worth the money, IMHO. -Ken -- For information on using the Palm Developer Forums, or to unsubscribe, please see http://www.palmos.com/dev/support/forums/
