DESCRIPTION

19       Hi-Notes  must  be  installed  on  your Palm handheld (and at least one
20       entry must exist within Hi-Notes).
21
22
23       By default, the contents of  your  Palm's  Hi-Notes  database  (Hi-Not‐
24       eDB.pdb)  will  be  written  to  STDOUT  as a standard Unix mailbox (in
25       mbox-format) file, with each memo as a separate message. The subject of
26       each message will be set as the category.
27
28
29       The  memos will be written to STDOUT unless the -d option is specified.
30       Using -d will be save the memos in subdirectories of dir.  Each  subdi‐
31       rectory  will  contain  the  name  of  a category on the Palm where the
32       record was stored, and will contain the memos found in that category.
33
34
35       Each memo's filename will be the first line (up to the first 40 charac‐
36       ters)  of  the  memo. Control characters, slashes, and equal signs that
37       would otherwise appear in filenames are  converted  using  the  correct
38       MIME's quoted-printable encoding.

WARNING

45       Note  that if you have two memos in the same category whose first lines
46       are identical, one of them will be OVERWRITTEN! This is unavoidable  at
47       the  present  time,  but may be fixed in a future release. Also, please
48       note that syncronizing Hi-Note images is not supported  at  this  time,
49       only text.
