NAME
       read-todos - Syncronize your Palm ToDo application's database with your
       desktop machine.

SYNOPSIS
       read-todos [-p <port>] [options]

DESCRIPTION
       read-todos will read the ToDo database on the Palm  handheld,  or  read
       the  ToDoDB.pdb	file  directly	from disk on your desktop machine, and
       print the contents to STDOUT (generally "The Screen[tm]").

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

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

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

       -f, --file [filename] ..
	      Read the ToDoDB.pdb file from disk and dump the contents to STD‐
	      OUT.

USAGE
       Connect to a target Palm handheld and read the ToDo database,  or  read
       the ToDoDB.pdb file from disk and print the entries found to STDOUT.

       By  default,  the contents of your Palm's ToDo database will be written
       to standard output in a simple text output format.

       If you supply the -f <file> argument,  while  omitting  the  -p	<port>
       argument, and pass it in the filename of a Palm ToDoDB.pdb-format file,
       the entries in the ToDo database file will be written to STDOUT.

       If you supply the -p <port> argument,  while  omitting  the  -f	<file>
       argument,  the ToDo database on your Palm will be read and sent to STD‐
       OUT in the same basic text format.

EXAMPLES
       Read the on-Palm ToDo database, and dump to STDOUT

	      read-todos -p /dev/pilot

       Read the ToDoDB.pdb file on disk, and dump to STDOUT

	      read-todos -f ToDoDB.pdb
