Force16 - There are other programs (e.g., Colorize, KhromaQC, Clie Skinner) that can set the default screen depth to 16-bit (65536 color) display mode for apps.
However, not all apps respect this setting. This OS5 hack for YAHM forces selected apps to run in 16-bits. Of course, some may not function correctly then, but some do.
This may let you use these apps with 16-bit icons, 16-bit skins, or whatever.
This is only really useful for advanced users, as well as users of my Clie Skinner who use 16-bit skins (Clie Skinner already includes a copy of Force16).
