DESCRIPTION

19       By  default,  the contents of your Palm's memo database will be written
20       to standard output as a standard UNIX mailbox (mbox-format) file,  with
21       each  memo  as  a separate message. The subject of each message will be
22       the category.
23
24
25       If '-s' is specified, then instead of being written to standard output,
26       memos will be saved in subdirectories of dir. Each subdirectory will be
27       the name of a category on the Palm, and will contain the memos in  that
28       category.  Each  filename  will  be  the first line (up to the first 40
29       characters) of the memo. Control characters, slashes, and  equal  signs
30       that  would otherwise appear in filenames are converted after the fash‐
31       ion of MIME's quoted-printable encoding. Note  that  if  you  have  two
32       memos in the same category whose first lines are identical, one of them
33       will be overwritten.
34
35
36       If '-f' is specified, the specified file will  be  treated  as  a  memo
37       database  from  which  to  read  memos, rather than HotSyncing from the
38       Palm.

REPORTING BUGS

121       We have an online bug tracker. Using this is the  only  way  to  ensure
122       that  your  bugs are recorded and that we can track them until they are
123       resolved or closed. Reporting bugs via email, while easy, is  not  very
124       useful  in  terms  of  accountability.  Please  point  your  browser to
125       http://bugs.pilot-link.org: http://bugs.pilot-link.org and report  your
126       bugs and issues there.
