I'm an experienced Windows and WindowsCE programmer and I'm now porting an 
application to PalmOS.

In the Windows environment, there is something called a version resource which 
can contain a variety of information, including the application version number 
in binary and text format, a description of the application, general comments, 
and a copyright message.

The closest equivalent that I can find in the Palm world is the VERSION 
statement in the .RCP file which has become <APP_VERSION_RESOURCE> in .XRD 
files. The only examples that I've seen place just a text format version number 
in this resouce.

I'm curious whether it is appropriate to use a much longer string including a 
copyright message or whether there is some other place that a copyright mesasge 
should be stored.

What do other developers do?

Thank,
  Norm
