NAME

6       Palm - Palm OS utility functions

SYNOPSIS

DESCRIPTION

FUNCTIONS

11   palm2epoch
12               my @parts = localtime( palm2epoch($palmtime) );
13
14       Converts a PalmOS timestamp to a Unix Epoch time. Note, however, that
15       PalmOS time is in the timezone of the Palm itself while Epoch is
16       defined to be in the GMT timezone. Further conversion may be necessary.
17
18   epoch2palm
19               my $palmtime = epoch2palm( time() );
20
21       Converts Unix epoch time to Palm OS time.
22
23   mkpdbname
24               $PDB->Write( mkpdbname($PDB->{name}) );
25
26       Convert a PalmOS database name to a 7-bit ASCII representation. Native
27       Palm database names can be found in ISO-8859-1 encoding. This encoding
28       isn't going to generate the most portable of filenames and, in
29       particular, ColdSync databases use this representation.
