Palm Desktop scripting support

DISCLAIMER: I'm not making any promises, but...

Scripting Palm Desktop is officially unsupported currently, and as
anyone who tried to write a script has probably discovered, it has
"issues". No promises, but if we were to start supporting scripting
officially, it would be simplest if we could resolve the issues
while not guaranteeing compatibility with existing scripts. What
this means is that any existing scripts may or may not work with a
future version of Palm Desktop, and may or may not require
rewriting to some degree. The question is whether compatibility is
important, and to what degree.

If you use the existing scripting support, please let me know
either privately or on the list (if you think it's appropriate), at
least roughly what you use it for, and whether you'd be willing to
have to update or rewrite your scripts to get better support in the
future. More specifically, it would help to know which events,
classes, and properties you depend on.

And please let me know of any specific problems or shortcomings
that you would like to see addressed.

Again, I can make no official promises about what might happen in a
future version of Palm Desktop, and I may not respond to your
messages, but your feedback is important and I do read everything.

P.S. Please let me know privately if there are any other lists or
forums where Palm Desktop scripting is discussed that you think I
should be reading.
