Plug-in applications
You can create plug-in applications containing script commands that
extend the functionality of the built-in script commands. A plug-in
application is a standard PRC application that you install on your PC
companion just like any other application. After you install the plug-
in application, you can use the new script commands in a login script.
Plug-in applications have the following characteristics:
■
Written in C language
■
Compiled into a device executable
■
Called properly from a login script
■
Able to return control to a login script after it terminates
■
Created using a development environment that supports software,
such as Metrowerks CodeWarrior for Palm Platform.
For additional information on creating plug-in applications, send
e-mail to Palm Developer Support at devsupp@palm.com.

Delay Tells your PC companion to wait a specific
number of seconds before executing the next
command in the login script.
