Yes, it did. Thanks, Chris.  Two more questions:

1. Is the shuttling to/from Palm a manual operation with the relevant steps above repeated 
as appropriate or am I missing how to automate it?

2. I've installed the script to convert .pdk files to .pdb files and then have them installed 
onto the handheld. Can't seem to get it to work. I've checked that I have a Progect folder in 
my PalmUserName folder and the script is in the computer-wide Library/Scripts/Folder 
Action Scripts folder. I've also done the Folder Action Setup as instructed. Can't figure out 
what I've failed to do, but the files are not being converted and they aren't being 
automatically installed on the handheld.  OS X 10.4.8, so it should work.
