READ-ICAL(1)

NAME
read-ical - coverts information on your Palm Computing Device into an Ical-formatted calendar

SYNOPSIS
read-ical /dev/tty[<0..n>] filename

DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents the small application read-ical. read-ical allows the user to retrieve the contents of the ToDo and Datebook databases on a a Pilot, and convert their contents to an Ical calendar. Once read-ical is started, the user must invoke HotSync on the target device. Note that the calendar file named by filename will be deleted, so do not use your main calendar. Instead, use a separate one for this purpose, and include it in your main calendar. As read-ical works by passing a script to ical, ical must be in your path.

  OPTIONS
<port> <filename>

USEAGE
The program will connect to a target device, retrieve the ToDo and Datebook databases (ToDoDB.pdb and DatebookDB.pdb respectively), then instruct ical to write a calendar file based on the retrieved information.
