1) Does anyone know what other strings can be sent to call_prom besides
"getprop", "findpackage", "interpret"?

claim, release, ... well, those are defined in the OF client interface
spec of the OF standard. Firmorks has, I think, a separate book for them

Ah ha! That explains it - that's the one firmworks manual I don't have.

Hmm, I found a description in a ps file I downloaded a few days ago when
surfing somewhere between Apple, Firmworks and Sun. Look for 1275.ps or
12750d12.ps in an FTP directory, quite a lot of functons of the client
interface are defined.

BTW: the name of the package is /openprom/client-services.
