Debug executables

If we switch back to the Metrowerks CodeWarrior IDE and click
Project/Make or hit F7, the application will build and generate
PDARobot.prc that can be loaded on the PDA and run (though nothing
will happen when you press the buttons).
It can be run on the Windows desktop by starting the emulator pro-
vided by Palm OS (that was installed with the evaluation version of
CodeWarrior). To do this, start the emulator (after downloading or
acquiring a ROM of the device) and in the IDE, click Project/Run or hit
Ctrl+F5. Figure 8.11 shows the program so far, running in the Palm OS
Emulator. It looks exactly the same running on the device.
