OPTIONS

   pilot-install-memo options
                               -c,
                               --category category

       Install  memo(s)  to  category  defined  by category. pilot-install-memo uses the Unfiled category as the
       default category if no category is chosen or if the specified category does  not  already  exist  on  the
       Palm.

                               -f,
                               --file STRING

       File containing the target memo entry. Append other filenames to install one memo per file.

                               -r, --replace

       Replace all memos in the category specified by the -c  category option.

                               -t --title

       Use  the  filename as the title for the memo. (Normally, the first line of a memo is used as the title if
       one is not supplied with the -t option).

   Conduit Options
                               -p, --portport

       Use  device  file  <port>  to  communicate  with  the  Palm  handheld.  If   this   is   not   specified,
       pilot-install-memo will look for the  $PILOTPORT  environment variable. If neither are found or supplied,
       pilot-install-memo will print the usage information.

                               -q,

BUGS

   Known Bugs
       The  Palm  Device  has a maximum length of 4,096 bytes (4k) on memopad entries, if you wish to retain the
       ability to edit the Memo (add/remove/change data within the memo) on the Palm itself. You  can  create  a
       memo  entry  of 65,490 bytes in size (the absolute maximum) if you do not need to edit the memo entry any
       further on the Palm device itself. Any memo larger than 4,096 bytes and less than 65,490 bytes  will  not
       be editable on the Palm itself. Consider these memo entries "read-only".

       This is not specifically a "bug", but a limitation in the PalmOS design itself.

   Reporting Bugs
       We  have an online bug tracker. Using this is the only way to ensure that your bugs are recorded and that
       we can track them until they are resolved or closed. Reporting bugs via email, while easy,  is  not  very
       useful   in   terms   of   accountability.  Please  point  your  browser  to  http://bugs.pilot-link.org:
