NAME
       read-palmpix  -	Convert	 all  pictures in the files given or found via
       connecting to a Palm handheld if no files are given. The default output
       type is Portable Pixmap (.ppm).

SYNOPSIS
       read-palmpix -p <port> -n <pixname> -t <type>

DESCRIPTION
       read-palmpix  allows  a Kodak PalmPix camera user to extract the images
       from their Palm handheld and convert them to Portable  Network  Graphic
       (.png) or Portable Pixmap (.ppm) files on their system.

OPTIONS
       -p, --port <port>
	      Use  device  file	 <port> to communicate with the Palm handheld.
	      If this is not specified, will look for the $PILOTPORT  environ‐
	      ment   variable.	 If   both   are   not	 found	 or  supplied,
	      install-expenses will fall back to /dev/pilot.

       -h, --help
	      Display the help synopsis for read-palmpix.

       -v, --version
	      Display version of read-palmpix.

       -l, --list
	      List picture information found on the Palm handheld  instead  of
	      converting the entries found to image files.

       -n, --name <pixname>
	      Convert  only  pixname to an image file, and output to a .ppm or
	      .png.

       -t, --type <type>
	      Specify the output picture type. Can be either "png" or "ppm".

USAGE
       The program will connect to the target  Palm  handheld,	and  read  the
       images  found  in the Kodak PalmPix image database (ArchImage.pdb), and
       allow the user to view the list of images  and  image  details,	or  to
       select one or all of them, and convert them to Portable Network Graphic
       (.png) or Portable Pixmap (.ppm) files to be viewed or printed  at  the
       desktop.	 If  no options are specified, all of the images on the device
       will be converted to ppm files by default.

BUGS
       KNOWN BUGS

	      read-palmpix's colour correction is not yet as good  as  Kodak's
	      own,  but	 Kodak has deprecated the PalmPix device, so it is not
	      likely that there will be any updates to their software  in  the
	      future, so this may be as good as it gets.
