Clearly the unix tools like "install-memo", to the extent that
they put any number of memos into a *.pdb file as separate records.
The problem is that these tools set the program creator so that
they belong to a fixed application.
But since source is available in pilot-link.0.9.0, it should be easy to
change the creator ID.

The software is under GPL though.
The install-memo program is about 210 lines for the main function file.

In fact, this software looks like it has a fairly generic
API for serial comms with the palm organiser.

It would be nicer, of course, if there was a well-documented API
for development of *.pdb file read/write utilities and
conduit development in the Unix idiom.

If there is such a library, I'd like to know about it too,
but if there isn't one, the pilot-link software is the
closest thing I'm aware of.

Cheers,
Alan Kennington.
