NAME

       pilot-hinotes - Synchronize your Hi-Notes database with your desktop machine.

SECTION

       pilot-link: Userland conduits

SYNOPSIS

        pilot-hinotes [-p|--port <port>] [--version] [-q|--quiet] [-?|--help] [--usage] [-d|--dirname  dir]

DESCRIPTION

       Hi-Notes must be installed on your Palm handheld (and at least one entry must exist within Hi-Notes).

       By  default, the contents of your Palm's Hi-Notes database (Hi-NoteDB.pdb) will be written to STDOUT as a
       standard Unix mailbox (in mbox-format) file, with each memo as a separate message. The  subject  of  each
       message will be set as the category.

       The memos will be written to STDOUT unless the -d option is specified. Using -d will be save the memos in
       subdirectories of dir. Each subdirectory will contain the name of a category on the Palm where the record
       was stored, and will contain the memos found in that category.

       Each  memo's  filename  will  be  the  first  line  (up  to the first 40 characters) of the memo. Control
       characters, slashes, and equal signs that would otherwise appear in filenames  are  converted  using  the
       correct MIME's quoted-printable encoding.

       Please see http://www.cyclos.com/ for more information on Hi-Note.

WARNING

       Note that if you have two memos in the same category whose first lines are identical, one of them will be
       OVERWRITTEN! This is unavoidable at the present time, but may be fixed in a future release. Also,  please
       note that synchronizing Hi-Note images is not supported at this time, only text.
