I found a pretty good way of at the same time keeping it in the app: I
define a section in the first clw in data.dll and then I include this
section in the other apps
Section('TypeDefs')
!typedefs to follow
Section('EndTypeDefs') !just to not include the rest of the file
Include('data.clw','TypeDefs')
