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  con­
        vert  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.
