Plug-in applications
You can create plug-in applications containing script commands that extend the
functionality of the built-in script commands. A plug-in application is a standard
PRC application that you install on your handheld just like any other application.
After you install the plug-in application, you can use the new script commands in
a login script.
Plug-in applications have the following characteristics:
■ Written in C language
■ Compiled into a device executable
■ Called properly from a login script
■ Able to return control to a login script after it terminates
■ Created using a development environment that supports Palm OS
®
software,
such as Metrowerks CodeWarrior for Palm™ Platform.
