SYNOPSISread-todos [-p <port>] [options]
DESCRIPTIONread-todos will read the ToDo database on the Palm handheld, or read
the ToDoDB.pdb file directly from disk on your desktop machine, and
print the contents to STDOUT (generally "The Screen[tm]").
OPTIONS-p, --port <port>
Use device file <port> to communicate with the Palm handheld
device. If this is not specified, will look for the $PILOTPORT
environment variable. If both are not found or supplied,
install-expenses will fall back to /dev/pilot.

-v, --version

-f, --file [filename] ..
Read the ToDoDB.pdb file from disk and dump the contents to STD‐
OUT.
USAGE
Connect to a target Palm handheld and read the ToDo database, or read
the ToDoDB.pdb file from disk and print the entries found to STDOUT.
By default, the contents of your Palm's ToDo database will be written
to standard output in a simple text output format.
If you supply the -f <file> argument, while omitting the -p <port>
argument, and pass it in the filename of a Palm ToDoDB.pdb-format file,
the entries in the ToDo database file will be written to STDOUT.
If you supply the -p <port> argument, while omitting the -f <file>
argument, the ToDo database on your Palm will be read and sent to STD‐
OUT in the same basic text format.
