NAME pilot-link - a suite of tools for communicating with Palm Computing, Inc. Palm Devices as well as the Handspring Visor, TRGPro, and other devices which conform to this stan- dard (PalmOS licensed devices). DESCRIPTION The pilot-link suite of tools contains a series of conduits for moving information to and from your Palm device and your desktop or workstation system. TARGET DEVICE All of the pilot-link programs will default to /dev/pilot as the default serial device used to communicate with a Palm. In general, if the environment variable $PILOTPORT is set, its value will override the default. A serial device speci- fied on the command-line will be used regardless of any $PILOTPORT setting. The default connection rate is 9600 baud. You are welcome to try higher baud rates (19200, 38400, 57600 or higher) by setting the $PILOTRATE environment variable, but various machines have various limitations. (Be careful about values higher than 115200 on Linux boxes if you've been using set- serial to change the multiplier.) USAGE Here is a list of programs available from within the pilot- link package as of the date of this manpage. addresses dump the Palm address book into a generic text-output format debugsh command-line interface to a Palm debug monitor dlpsh command-line interface to Palm HotSync protocol. This is very useful for debugging potential problems with your serial port. getrom program to fetch ROM using getrom.prc or getrom2.prc getrom.prc Palm program to help dump a 512K ROM getrom2.prc Palm program to help dump a 1024K ROM (used for PalmOS 2.x) ietf2datebook convert IETF calendar to format used by install- datebook install-datebook import datebook records from a text format into the Palm install-memo import Memo records from a text format into the Palm install-todos import ToDo records from a text format into the Palm install-user modify user name settings (and report lots of into) about the Palm memos export memos from the Palm in mailbox format pi-csd this must be running to accept Network HotSync(tm) con- nects pi-getram program that retrieves the RAM from Palm pi-getrom program that retrieves ROM from Palm (without getrom.prc) pi-nredir program that accepts connections and redirects them via the Network HotSync(tm) protocol pi-port experimental program to separate serial layer from pilot-link pilot-addresses import and export address book to and from your Palm pilot-clip experimental program to import and export data from Palm clipboard pilot-debug graphical and command-line program to interface with Palm debug monitor pilot-dedupe strips duplicate records from Palm databases pilot-file dissect .prc and .pdb files pilot-mail import mail from POP3 mailbox into Palm's default Mail application, and send mail via sendmail. This has been replaced by pilot-mailsync from Hollis Blanchard. Please see the CREDITS file for additional information on how to obtain this package. pilot-schlep store a single file on the Palm pilot-undelete turn previously archived records into normal records by resetting the Dirty bit pilot-xfer back up, restore, install & delete Palm databases. The Swiss Army Chainsaw of pilot-link read-expenses export Palm expense database into text format read-ical export Palm Datebook and ToDo databases (DatebookDB.pdb and ToDoDB.pdb respectively) into an Ical calendar (ical is required) read-todos export Palm ToDo database into generic text format reminders export Palm Datebook into a 'remind' data file sync-plan completely synchronize the Palm datebook with the Plan calendar via netplan ADVANCED PROGRAMS Some of these programs are not intended for general end- users. More detailed documentation on their usage can be obtained by reading the source of the application. ccexample test program demonstrating C++ interface iambicexample test program demonstrating C++ interface validate experimental program to test C++ features OBTAINING The most current version of the pilot-link suite of tools can be found at the following FTP site: ftp://gnu-designs.com/pub/palm/pilot-link/ MAILING LIST The pilot-unix mailing list is maintained by Matthew Cravit. Its mandate is: The pilot-unix mailing list is for discussion and idea-sharing for those interested in using your Palm PDA with UNIX systems. This includes people who are interested in helping to develop tools to allow the Palm to operate with UNIX, and possibly to develop an SDK for the Palm for Unix. For more information, including how to subscribe to the list, send mail containing the word 'INFO' to pilot-unix- request@hcirisc.cs.binghamton.edu. The subject line does not matter.

AUTHOR Most of the pilot-link tools were written by Kenneth Albanowski. This manual page was written by David H. Silber, and updated for this version of pilot-link by David A. Desrosiers. Current maintainer of pilot-link as of the authoring of this manpage is David A. Desrosiers. Any questions or problems with pilot-link should be directed at the pilot-unix mailing list. All patches should be sent to pilot-link@gnu-designs.com directly.
