device.
SECTION
pilot-link: Userland Conduits
SYNOPSIS
memos [-p|--port <port>] [--version] [-q|--quiet]
[-?|--help] [--usage] [-v|--verbose] [-d|--delete]
[-f|--file file] [-s|--save dir ] [-c|--category STRING]
[-r|--regex STRING]
DESCRIPTION
By default, the contents of your Palm's memo database will
be written to standard output as a standard UNIX mailbox
(mbox-format) file, with each memo as a separate message.
The subject of each message will be the category.
If '-s' is specified, than instead of being written to
standard output, will be saved in subdirectories of dir.
Each subdirectory will be the name of a category on the
Palm, and will contain the memos in that category. Each
memo's filename will be the first line (up to the first 40
characters) of the memo. Control chcters, slashes, and
equal signs that would otherwise appear in filenames are
converted after the fashion of MIME's quoted-printable
encoding. Note that if you have two memos in the same cat-
egory whose first lines are identical, one of them will be
overwritten.
If '-f' is specified, the specified file will be treated
as a memo database from which to read memos, rather than
HotSyncing from the Palm.
