IIRC PalmOS prc and pdb are similar, in that they both contain PalmOS data, but pdb was meant to just for data and prc was meant to include executable resources too. PalmOS borrows a massive amount from 68K Mac. Codewarrior used to be the default compiler, and PalmOS uses resources in a similar way - though the actual file format is different IIRC. PalmOS apps are basically modified 68K Mac code (library?) resources. There was a tool that converted ThinkPascal generated binaries of whatever the type I don;t remember was, to prc files. SARC was what it was called.
