Well, I just got some bad news from Dave 'NQC' Baum.
Apparently he's a Palm developer, and he won't touch

the Palm OS. Apparently NQC needs a lot more dynamically-

I'd heard of the 32k limit, but I didn't realize it
was quite so severe. I thought it was something that
could be more or less coded around, but it seems like
it would be disasterous for NQC.
Too bad, too. I really would like to have a go at this,
but not like that.
