NAME

palm-datebook-reminders - generate simple report from Palm Datebook DB

SYNOPSIS

PALM-DATEBOOK-REMINDERS [options]

DESCRIPTION

palm-datebook-reminders reads a Palm Datebook database and prints out a list of events in the near future in a reasonably easy to read format.

Immiment events (ones in approximately the next 48 hours by default) are listed with complete item text. Forthcoming events (approximately the next 4 weeks by default) are listed in summary form.

OPTIONS

Specifies that imminent and forthcoming events are ones within the next immiment and forthcoming seconds, respectively.
Reads the file filename instead of ./DatebookDB.pdb. If the bare form is used, filename must start with a . or / (dot or slash).

BUGS

The program is not configurable enough.

The option parsing is very grotty.

Proper character set conversion is not performed.

FILES

Default input file.
