I have not used the Palm Dev Studio, which I believe is for Windows.
Instead I use prctools+pilrc+pose, which is the freeware tool
combination for use under Linux.  You actually download the sources
and build the tools on your Linux box.  You can also download pre-built
binaries, but building from source is the least problematic approach.

These tools do the following:

prctools - the gcc M68K cross compiler that works under i386 Linux.
   also includes binutils, etc.

pilrc - converts text descriptions of resources (gui components)
   to Palm-usable binaries.

pose - the Palm OS emulator.  Allows you to run the Palm program
   you created on your i386 Linux box, using M68K emulation - a truly
   wonderful program from PalmDev.

I have actually produced a scientific calculator program using these
tools.  It is available for download from:
