palm-datebook-reminders(1) 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

imminent/forthcoming | -timminent/forthcoming
Specifies that imminent and forthcoming events are ones within the next immiment and forthcoming seconds, respectively.
filename | -ffilename
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

DatebookDB.pdb
Default input file.
