!!NAME


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


__read-ical /dev/tty[[
__
!!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__


!!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.
