I should also mention that with Font Collector (elsewhere on this site) and FontHackV (likewise), PalmFontConv'd fonts can be used for anything on the handheld. Double super nifty.

Super nifty. If you're building under Linux/Unix/etc and get various errors about 'undefined function strnicmp' or similar, you may need to add '-D__GNUCC__' to the Makefile's CFLAGS variable. I'm not sure why gcc doesn't define that symbol on its own. Works a treat! Thanks.
