    The reason that I asked about devices and keyboards relates to the  
possible use of pScripts.  Since each different Palm device, M500,  
M505, TE, T5, TX, etc., all have differing versions of OS 4 or 5, the  
various OS's respond differently at times to some of the pScript  
language tokens and expressions, particularly those relating to  
navigation and (emulated) screen taps.  So a pScript that works on an  
M505 may not do exactly the same on a TE or TX or Treo.  You might  
need slightly different pScripts to do the same tasks for different  
devices.  I have a lot of experience writing pScripts, but only on the  
actual devices, never on emulators.  I think, from some comments made  
by Paul in the past, that pScripts on emulator may not always work the  
same as on the handheld.  All that said, some pScripts might  
facilitate your formating process.  As already noted in my last post,  
I think your best bet will be to get the Teikei parts to your  
satisfaction and then look at whether adding some pScripts can  
automate and streamline it somewhat for you.
