Goal would be to create a small OS app that allows you to jump between apps. Obviously some code would need to be added to every app so you can jump back to the OS app.

2 easy questions:

> Since I can pack my app bin files into my resource file, is there a way to execute these apps?
> What's the max size a resource file can be? Mine have been over 120KB so I'm just wondering what the limit it.

Currently there is no support for that in the SDK, but we're considering that functionality for a future release. In the mean time you can adapt hudson's app framework for your needs.

The max size for resources is 384 kB. The resource packer can generate a resource file larger than that, but only the first 384 kB will get sent over to the watch.

First of all, thanks for the memory info, that's good to know.
Second, let's make that functionality happen shall we? :)

We're in the process of looking at memory overlays and paging binary code from resources into memory. What sort of apps are you aiming at building? It would help to have a target to build the API out towards.
